“Looking forward to next summer, I think we need to prepare better mentally and physically. We need to be ready. We are all very excited to play at home, in front of our crowd, as an additional player for us,” Sochan shared via a message posted by the Polish Basketball Federation. (h/t Eurohoops)
“In the Olympic Games, we saw European powerhouses like Germany, Serbia, and France, so we know we need to be ready to compete with the best next year.”
