Tennis star Novak Djokovic faced some criticism from fans in Greece, where he was recently booed at a basketball game. Despite being a proud Serbian, Djokovic decided to move his family to Athens, Greece, which raised some eyebrows among his supporters.
Known for his exceptional tennis skills, Djokovic is also an avid basketball enthusiast, often seen at matches supporting Serbian teams like Red Star and Partizan. However, his presence at a recent Euroleague game between Panathinaikos and Maccabi in Greece sparked some negative reactions from the local fans.
Although neither of his favorite teams was playing, Djokovic and his son, Stefan, were shown on the arena’s big screen, triggering boos from the crowd. Despite the mixed reception, Djokovic remained focused on his phone, while Stefan acknowledged the audience with a peace sign.
Following the incident, Djokovic attended another basketball game between Olympiacos and Monaco, where he received a more positive reception from the crowd. Panathinaikos went on to win their Euroleague match against Maccabi, maintaining a competitive position in the rankings.
Despite his basketball interests, Djokovic is gearing up for the ATP Finals in Turin, where he will face tough opponents like Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner, Alexander Zverev, and Taylor Fritz. With concerns over his form and fitness, Djokovic’s performance in the upcoming tournament will be closely watched by fans and critics alike.
