A bit late to the party, but KK Bosna pulled of an incredible away win in Rome against BC Roma.
After starting 0-3, KK Bosna has now won 2 in a row to improve their record.
Congratulations 👏

Just in: Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards will undergo an arthroscopic procedure on his ailing right knee and miss up to two months, sources tell ESPN.
The greatest there ever was, the greatest there’ll ever be.
20 years of wearing the kit, through the good and the bad moments.
Thank you captain for everything, there’ll never be another Dzeko.

In the newest FIBA ranking our NT improved by 2 spots, making us now 31st.
In Europe we are ranked 17th.
KK Bosna is in Group D of the EuroCup with following opponents:
Bahcesehir Koleji / 🇹🇷
Balkan Botevgrad / 🇧🇬
Manresa / 🇪🇸
Lietkabelis / 🇱🇹
BC Roma / 🇮🇹
PAOK / 🇬🇷
Ulm / 🇩🇪
First match is away vs Lietkabelis, and the first home match is vs Paok on October 6th
PAOK, who will face KK Bosna in the EuroCup has not forgotten the historic games they had with our club.
The Greek club paid tribute on Instagram and showed some flashbacks to the games they played.
Class act from PAOK
It‘s a big shame that this generation never managed to qualify for a WC.
If we fail to qualify for this one too, the next (realistically speaking) tournament we‘ll play is the EuroBasket 2029. By that time most of the core players will be in their 30s, or close to retirement:
Musa (30)
Kamenjaš (29)
Atić (32)
Gegić (31)
Alibegović (34)
Nurkić (35)
Garza (31)
Lazić (33)
This would then likely be the last tournament for a lot players maybe with the exception of Musa, Garza and Kamenjaš. And the upcoming young players dont show that much promise to be hopeful.
Even though we had big wins and great moments, if they don’t qualify for the WC it‘ll feel like a generation that didn’t completely fulfill their potential.
It is now official
KK Bosna will replace Monaco in the EuroCup and make a comeback to the competition after 19 years.
Great news for our club, who will now play 2 European competitions once again.
Sarajevo is back on the map
FT: BiH 73-78 LTU
That’s almost it, because we aren’t beating Lithuania with 6+ points in the rematch.
Unbelievably stupid loss, shocking refereeing and some head scratching moments from our players.
We won‘t have Nurkic and Garza for the rest of the qualifiers anymore because it‘s NBA season. Musa, who knows how his injury history will be.
We‘re almost certainly out of the WC qualifiers.
3Q done.
I‘m honestly at a loss of words. The referees officiating has been horrendous this quarter.
But its not only the refs fault, our players played like special needs children.
Darko Talić with unbelievably dumb mistakes and turnovers.
3 point deficit to catch up to
HT:
BiH 46-42 LTU
Was a good half, could‘ve been better. We lead with +8 at one point and it looked like the game will chip away when Lithuania took the lead but they closed the half well.
We are shooting well from the FT and we already made more 3s in this half than in the whole game against Italy.
Now just play like that in the 2nd half and we get that crucial win.
1Q done:
BiH 23-20 LTU
Nurkić did a good job early on foul baiting the Lithuanian defense and thus securing a lot of FT early on.
Even more important is us making those free throws as we have only missed one from 11 attempts.
Shot selection again should be better.
The first Matchball of the qualifiers is today!
We play against Lithuania away and a win would be a massive step in the right direction.
Lithuania has the same record that we have (3-4) so a win would be worth double, as you leave them behind and get a good head start in the H2H which could be crucial in the later stages of the qualifiers.
I dont need to tell you all the scandals that surround our NT right now, from Lazić to the equipment being held at the Belgrade airport, so a win today would be the right message.

Tip off at 17:30.
