THE 2017 DREAM TEAM

TOTAL 7

Beside the best player, our expert jury also established the best team in 2017 - The Total Seven, with four of them hailing from current world champions Croatia: Luka Lončar (center forward), Xavi Garcia (right wing), Sandro Sukno (left wing) and Andro Bušlje (set guard). Two Hungarian players were also elected, Viktor Nagy in the role of the goalkeeper and Márton Vámos as the right driver. Serbian genius Andrija Prlainović rounds up the team in the left wing position.
