Italy Coach Pozzecco Jokes About ‘Sniper’ Plan to Stop Giannis Antetokounmpo

Asked how Italy might contain Antetokounmpo, Pozzecco cracked, “Friend of mine is a sniper…that’s the only option. He’s unstoppable in the NBA, you think we can stop him now? No chance.” He recalled Giannis trying to lift him postgame, admitting, “I was afraid to jump…sorry Giannis, I’m not in shape.” Italy plays Greece in their EuroBasket opener on August 28th.
