Greece will enter the FIBA Basketball World Cup without its best player, though. Superstar forward Giannis Antetokounmpo announced that he won't be available for his country, stating, "After months of work and multiple meetings with medical staff it is clear that I am not ready to compete in the level that I need to be to participate in the World Cup," via X, formerly known as Twitter.
