Kushchenko: FIBA to Approve VTB League's New Tournament
VTB League president says FIBA never tried to revoke the league's licence, as the second Winline Basket Cup nears with Igokea and FMP set to compete.
"FIBA will accept our in-season tournament shortly. FIBA did not even try to revoke our licence to hold an international competition," Kushchenko said, speaking at the Expo Basket venue.
He described the current standing with FIBA as a case-by-case arrangement, noting that individual restrictions on VTB League players and coaches have recently been lifted.
The tournament in question is the Winline Basket Cup, organised jointly with a partner, with a second edition due this year. Igokea and FMP are among the sides set to take part.
