BELGRADE (Serbia) - Slovenia have officially confirmed their 12-man roster for the upcoming FIBA EuroBasket 2025, headlined by none other than one of the competition's brightest stars, Luka Doncic.
Head coach Aleksander Sekulic finalized the squad right after the tough 34-point defeat to Serbia in Belgrade, which concluded their preparation campaign ahead of the tournament.

The FIBA EuroBasket 2017 champions had a tough preparation for the most-awaited event of the summer, winning only one friendly game out of six.
They lost twice to Germany to begin their preparation tour, and then suffered defeats to Lithuania, Latvia, and ultimately Serbia. Their only win came against Great Britain.
It has been a difficult summer for the Slovenian national team, which will place their hopes on one of the best basketball players on the planet, answering to Luka Doncic's name.
The Dragons will play the Group Phase in Katowice, alongside Poland, France, Israel, Belgium, and Iceland in Group D.
They will begin their campaign against Poland on August 28 at 20:30 CET. That will be a rematch of the Semi-Finals at FIBA EuroBasket 2022.
