"Boki":

Boštjan is an accomplished player on various levels, from Europe to NBA, he has seen it all. After starting off as a prospect in Italy and being drafted #15 by the Houston Rockets he spent 6 years in the NBA. The next stages of his career were centered around playing in Europe, going on to play in Russia, Turkey, Germany & Spain while winning various domestic Championships and Cups in all of those countries. Boki retired in 2017 after spending two final seasons in Sevilla and moved on to "winning championships" with his family.

Today, Boki and me talked about a variety of topics, starting off about his experience as a podcaster, through his experience as a player in the NBA as well as Europe, adaptations and communication with coaches. We dove a bit deeper in the communication with Assistant coaches and the responsibilities that they have as well as US vs European coaching styles. Boki also talked about his duties with ELPA, being the Managing Director, he talked about the goals as well as achievements so far and the vision for young players going forward.
