"To be honest, I don't have much information about Azerbaijani basketball. But I know some players."
These words were said by former Turkish national basketball player Oğuz Savaş.
The 38-year-old veteran player singled out 3 basketball players in the team.
"I had the opportunity to watch basketball players such as Orkhan Aydın Hajiyev, as well as Zak LeDay and Donta Hall. There is also the "Sabah" team in your league. I remember it for its performance in European cups," he said in a statement to AZERTAC.
O.Savaş also named the team he considers a favorite in the Euroleague this season:
"For me, it's my former team "Fenerbahçe" (laughs). The squad is very balanced, there are both experienced and energetic players. Teams like "Olympiacos" and "Panathinaikos" are also contenders."
It should be noted that Oğuz Savaş played in 293 matches for the Turkish national team. He won a silver medal at the 2010 World Championship.
