Serbian tennis ace, Novak Djokovic, has sent a message of support to the Serbian basketball team, just days prior to beginning his defense of Roland Garros.
The main draw of the year's second tennis grand slam, Roland Garros, gets underway in the French capital Paris on Monday, with Novak Djokovic beginning his defense of the title on the Philippe-Chatrier court early in the afternoon.
However, despite his busy schedule, the globally-recognized figure took a moment to wish Serbia the best of luck ahead of August's FIBA EuroBasket 2017.
Serbia will be hoping to go one better than their Rio silver medals, beginning their campaign against Latvia on September 1.
