Serbia NT coach, Dusan Ivkovic cut Luka Bogdanovic, Mladen Jeremic and his own player at Olympiacos, Zoran Erceg from the preparation. As it is already known Darko Milicic and Uros Tripkovic are also out of the WC, the first because he needs to train with the Timberwolves and the second cause he is resting after surgery.

That leaves 16 players in the preparation squad of the Serbian NT which are the following: Milos Teodosic, Stefan Markovic, Bojan Popovic, Ivan Paunic, Milenko Tepic, Aleksandar Rasic, Dragan Milosavljevic, Marko Keselj, Nemanja Bjelica, Ivan Radenovic, Milan Macvan, Dusko Savanovic, Novica Velickovic, Boban Marjanovic, Miroslav Raduljica and Kosta Perovic.
