Aunque la decisión ha causado cierto recelo en algunos círculos del baloncesto nacional, se ha activado porque los otros dos jugadores que han participado más recientemente como naturalizados en la Selección, Serge Ibaka y Nikola Mirotic, no han dado inputs positivos con vistas al Eurobasket que arranca para España, actual medalla de bronce en 2017, el 1 de septiembre en Georgia.
