Totally agree. Got to meet him at selection Sunday and he’s just a great guy.
Dude can play some serious D, and I hope he tears it up like we all know he can!
We love you DLO!
 
DLO has joined the Great Britain National team which will compete for the FIBA EuroBasket 2021 Championship. Congratulations to DLO!

Here is an earlier article from 2 weeks ago about the team-
http://gb.basketball/2019/07/27/gb-m...ers-announced/

The team will play 4 pre-qualifying games this month, including a game tonight in Kosovo (1:30 pm Central time).
Roster page - Scroll down below the team photos to see their schedule-
http://gb.basketball/teams/gb-men/
Note that on this roster page they incorrectly show DLO playing with the wrong pro team. It shows CB Breogan (Spain), but as we have previously reported, he has signed with Bergamo Basket (Italy)

The game will be streamed live for free here starting at 1:30 pm Central-
http://gb.basketball/2019/08/07/watc...vo-right-here/

Since this will be DLO's first game with this GB National team (one of two players who were just added to the team),
I would expect his playing time might be limited.
They play again 8/10 and 8/17 in Manchester, England, and 8/21 in Luxembourg.

Tonight's squad in full - the number of games played is in parentheses:
  1. Jamell Anderson - Leicester Riders, BBL (31)
  2. Robert Gilchrist - BC LF Lulea, Sweden (12)
  3. Ashley Hamilton - London Royals, BBL (18 )
  4. Myles Hesson - BCM Gravelines, France (35)
  5. Kyle Johnson - Stajrnan, Iceland (79)
  6. Dwayne Lautier-Ogunleye - Bergamo Basket, Italy (0)

Great Britain won their pre-qualifying game today 71-63 over the host Kosovo team.
As I anticipated, DLO did not play much because he is new to the team, while most of the players have been playing for the
National Team for a long time.

Here is the box score, DLO had 2 points in 7+ minutes.

Their next game is Saturday 8/10 in Manchester, England against Luxembourg.

DLO is played in his first game today with his pro team, Bergamo in Italy. It was a preseason game between Bergamo Basket and Urania Milano in the Lega Nazionale Pallacanestro A2 Supercup group.

What a terrific start for DLO!
DLO had 24 points, 7 rebounds, 3 steals, 3 assists, 9 fouls drawn (a stat kept in European pro leagues) and he had the decisive final points at the end to put his team ahead and win 71-70 vs Urania Milano.
