Dorell Wright: “He’s a winner. He’s having a great year, not only with Real Madrid but also with the Slovenian National Team last summer. You always want a winner on your team, and he brings that winning pedigree even though he’s so young. A lot of people underestimate European basketball, but these guys can really play. I’m talking 1-through-13, these guys can play. A lot of the players are really well-rounded and bring a lot of different things to the table too. The Euro game is not easy at all. With Luka, he grew up playing against tough competition and dealt with a lot of physicality from a young age. He’s a tough guy who is fine playing games where you have to grind out a win.”

After skipping the whole of the 2016-2017 season, NBA veteran and 2006 champion with the Miami Heat Dorell Wright is resurging his career in EuroLeague with German club Brose Bamberg while dreaming of his return in the best league on the planet. “That’s my ultimate goal. To get back in the NBA,” Wright told Eurohoops. “That’s where I want to be in.”
Wright knows that NBA front offices are always looking and would love to follow a similar route. But if that doesn’t happen, continuing in Europe is an option that also has its merits. “Everybody is watching me. NBA is the goal. I’d rather be there with my family,”Wright said to Eurohoops. But if I had to start my career again in Europe, I’m fine with that. I want to play at least four more years. If that’s going to be in Europe, I think I can be successful here.”

I assume it’s Euroleague only for you this season, no? It’s not like China where you can play the CBA season, then join an NBA club in February/March. Dorell Wright: Yeah, just Euroleague and German League. My team has won the German League last three years. So it should be a long season 🤙🏾
