"Basketball is just beginning to develop in Azerbaijan. They want to rebuild this sport."
Idman.biz reports that Rimantas Grigas, the head coach of the national women's basketball team of Lithuania, said this before the match against Azerbaijan in the qualifying round of the 2025 European Championship.
The expert said that he is aware of every case in the team. According to him, he has already received all the necessary information: "It is no secret that Virginis Bulot advises Azerbaijan and helps them play good basketball. Because their government really wants it. Azerbaijan is somewhat similar to Turkiye and strives to develop basketball in their country. Thanks to nationalization, you can raise basketball at once, but in general, the whole system should work from the bottom up."
It should be noted that the match between Lithuania and Azerbaijan will start today at 21:30.
