Emmanuel Agbason, a member of the U-18 team of the "Sabah" basketball club, who is in the symbolic "Top 5" in the FIBA Youth Champions League, is grateful to his teammates for this achievement.
The young player himself reported about it.
"I thank them for that. I also tried to do everything for the team. The efforts of other basketball players also contributed to my individual success. I think we can fight better in the future. In general, the competition went very well for us and was a great experience. For this reason, we look to the future more optimistically," he said in an interview with report.az.
E. Agbason, who also wears the uniform of the Azerbaijani national team, said that the team was newly formed for this tournament:
"It was the first time we participated in such a competition. We couldn't perform as we wanted in the first game. But in the second match, everything went as we wanted. We understood each other better. So we won. We also wanted to win the third game. We fought to the end, but it didn't work out. However, we won the fourth match. I think our team performed very well."
