Honored Coach of Russia Sergei Elevitch sees no problem for national basketball that American basketball players can leave the Russian championship.
Earlier, it was learned that the Women’s NBA, due to the arrest of Brittney Griner, has established a tacit ban on performances in Russia for its players. On July 7, Greiner pleaded guilty to drug trafficking in Russia.
– American basketball players won’t play with us? And thank God. I do not care. What’s wrong with that? There will be more of us. No need to bring drugs here. If a person is guilty, then what to say? And that’s the negative thing that Americans do. And this may just be the first taken. Many of them smoke marijuana. It’s about something.
Well, they won’t play in our league, and that’s okay. Since such a restructuring is in progress, I am in favor of playing only ours. We don’t need these Americans,” Yelevich told .
