Nikola Jokic, interviewed by media, also took time to comment on the summer experience with the Serbian national team, gaining a hard-fought bronze medal. First, he spoke about the narrow defeat in the Semi-Finals to Team USA. “It was a good match. Probably the biggest defeat of my career. [We had a] big chance. In the end, they beat us. People from the stands will probably see it as a normal defeat, but for those who played, it was certainly one of the toughest defeats in our careers”, he said via Mozzart Sport.
