NAVI.GG.BET has finalized its Dota 2 roster — Nikola “LeBron” Popović will join the fray. At the beginning of January LeBron has already played for the Born to Win as a stand-in: thanks to him NAVI qualified for GESC: Indonesia Dota 2 Minor.



Soon the new roster will gather for a bootcamp in Kyiv, where we are going to prepare for the upcoming Dota 2 Asia Championships 2018 qualifiers.



Yevhen Zolotarov — Natus Vincere CEO:

“I am amazed by the persistence and motivation of LeBron. Detailed comments regarding the choice of LeBron will come during the bootcamp. Good luck to us all!”



Nikola “LeBron” Popović:

“Finally this day has come, my dreams have come true! I was playing dota for a while, but the first tournament I watched was TI1, and I felt in love with NAVI. I have never heard of them before, or about any other pro players before TI, for that matter. After watching how NAVI dominated and won the tournament with so much passion I became a huge fan and I dreamt of playing with them. Even though this dream seemed unrealistic at the time, I was still hoping that I can make it. It doesn't matter how old you are — if you are working hard and commit everything you can, I am sure you can make the dreams come true! As a big fan of NAVI I know what fans expect and that's being back on top, and I can assure you that we will try our best to make it happen! I want to thank the organization and the players for believing in me.”
