FIBA Secretary General Andreas Zagklis met the journalists before the two finals of World Cup in China.

Zagklis: “Our new competition system is at the first half of his testing, and overall we are satisfied as of now. The impact of the qualifiers has been very positive. We need regular home games for the national teams.” #FIBAWC — Ennio Terrasi Borghesan (@ennioterbo) September 15, 2019

Zagklis: “The expansion to 32 teams has been a natural evolution, to follow the global nature of our sport. Teams transfers through the different cities have been a challenge and we will look to operate further adjustments” #FIBAWC — Ennio Terrasi Borghesan (@ennioterbo) September 15, 2019

Zagklis: “Poland and Czech Republic have built on the experience of the qualifiers. National teams need continuity. They have shown how basketball could expand to new markets” #FIBAWC — Ennio Terrasi Borghesan (@ennioterbo) September 15, 2019
