Athens (Piraeus), Riga or Valencia will be one of the cities where Montenegrin basketball players will chase the dream called the Olympic Games.

Before today's draw (19 p.m.), Fiba determined the hosts of the tournament for basketball Olympic qualifications, namely Greece, Latvia, Puerto Rico and Spain.

As Boško Radović's boys are in the same hat with Puerto Rico before the draw, it is clear that they will not travel to this distant Central American country where the city of San Juan will be the host.

In addition to our and the Puerto Rican selection, there are also the Dominican Republic and Finland in the third hat.

Montenegro's potential rivals in the group stage are selections from the second and sixth hat - Brazil, Italy, Greece and Poland, or Egypt, Bahamas, Cameroon and Bahrain.

Qualifications are played by organizing four tournaments - from July 2 to 7 - where six national teams will be divided into two groups.

Only the winners of the tournament will secure a trip to Paris.
