The Olympic qualifiers are held on July 2 which means 2 weeks of rest for Luka. He’ll most likely be playing for Slovenia unless the medical team has power over him which I doubt.

What are the chances of Slovenia qualifying you might ask? Only 1 out of 6 teams will be eligible to participate in the Olympics.

So far what we know is on July 2nd Slovenia will be playing against Croatia. On July 4th Slovenia will be playing against New Zealand.

This is the full list of teams participating in the Olympic qualifier tournament.

• Slovenia

• Greece

• Dominican Republic

• New Zealand

• Croatia

• Egypt

What does it mean if Slovenia qualifies for the Olympics?

This means that Slovenia will playing from Fri, Jul 27, 2024 – Sun, Aug 10, 2024. Obviously, the amount of games Slovenia plays is dependent on how far they get into the Olympics. July 27 – Aug 3 is when the group stages take place. Let's imagine if Slovenia somehow qualifies for a bronze or silver medal match. This will carry on until Aug 10.

Afterwards, Olympic basketball is officially done. The NBA season started on Oct 24 last year so this would mean that Luka has about 2 1/2 months off rest. That doesn't seem like much since he's played the most playoff basketball he has had in his entire career while being injured the majority of the time. If he doesn't participate in the Olympics whatsoever? That means he would get 4 months of total rest.

I wish Slovenia & Luka the best but I sincerely wish he takes a full season to rest his body and take his conditioning seriously because if losing the NBA Finals doesn't change his attitude with physical fitness then I don't think anything will… I'm sure Slovenia winning a bronze, silver, or gold medal would mean more to him than winning an NBA championship but the task will be impossible for the Olympics since the U.S. has more superstars that participate for the Olympics and other countries are attracting more talented NBA & EuroLeague players.
