Greek national selector Elias Zouros has announced his list of call-ups for the Greek NT squad which will travel to Venezuela in order to fight for a ticket to London 2012 Olympic tournament.
Compared to the last Eurobasket squad, the only ones missing are Vasilis Xanthopoulos and Kostas Koufos, while another two prominent names not called are Sofo Schortsanitis and Stratos Perperoglou. However if Greece makes the Olympics, both Koufos and Schortsanitis are expected to be called if they are healthy by then.
