In this episode, FGCU basketball alum Filip Cvjeticanin and I talk about his upringings in Croatia and how his Senior year in Spain led him to America. Filip remembers how his father, who won two Olympic medals with the Yugoslavian/Croatian national team), told him about facing the 1992 "Dream Team".
Afterwards, he talked about his college selection, which led him to FGCU, where the Eagles became the only No. 15 seed to reach the Sweet Sixteen in March Madness.
We also discuss FGCU'c chances of success this season, which has now been put on hold due to positive COVID-19 cases that were not known before recording this episode.
Lastly, Filip shared his views on how European stars like Luka Doncic, Nikola Jokic, Giannis Antetokounmpo, and others have succeeded in the NBA.
