CHECK OUT THE PLAYER'S DISAPPOINTMENT:
“Me and My family arrived at Flamengo very excited in September, with big plans. We received a lot from Rio and Flamengo. Our daughter was born here, which is a blessing. But our routine took a toll, my wife and I were not prepared for everyday life in this new reality and we were suffering. I wish all the best to the team and the fans, who treated us so well. I believe that Flamengo will still win a lot this year”, concluded the Hungarian.
“Flamengo thanks him for the services provided and wishes him success in continuing the athlete’s career”, the red-black team communicated on social media . Now, the pivot returns to his country of origin, but without stating the reason.
Marko Filipovity arrived at Flamengo in 2023, coming from BV Chemnitz 99, in Germany. The 27-year-old pivot played in 32 games and won Super 8 and Campeonato Carioca titles. In the current edition of Novo Basquete Brasil (NBB), the player has an average of 11 points and four rebounds.
As for Flamengo's situation, the team remains unbeatable in the NBB. With 48 points and an 85% success rate, Mengão leads the competition. In 26 matches played, the team won 22 and lost four, surpassing Minas in the standings.

Jhonatan Luz is guaranteed to be in the FlaBasquete squad for the 2025/26 season . With a career marked by achievements and dedication on the court, the winger will continue to defend the Sacred Mantle in search of more titles with the Pride of the Nation.

A reference for commitment, Jhonatan is one of the most respected athletes in the squad and continues to be a trusted name for coach Sergio Hernandez. His permanence reinforces the team's winning base for another year of great challenges.

It's the only title left, and I want to leave my legacy here. I'm ready for the new challenges and, together with my teammates, we're going after all the titles of the season” , said Jhonatan.
