After another thriller in Manila, Bogdan Bogdanovic has helped bring the Serbian national men’s basketball team to the doorsteps of an international gold medal.
On Friday, Serbia faced off against Canada in the first semifinal of the 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup. After jumping out to a 52-39 halftime lead, Serbia held on in the second half to win and advance, 95-86.
Hawks wing Bogdan Bogdanovic once again led the charge for Serbia, dropping in 23 points, four rebounds and three assists. ‘Bogi’ continued to light it up from all three levels, putting in 8-of-12 (67%) of shots from the floor, 3-of-4 (75%) from three and adding 4-for-5 (80%) shooting from the free throw line.
