The meeting was attended by the Minister of Youth and Sports of Ukraine Vadym Gutzeit, world heavyweight boxing champion Oleksandr Usyk, former defender of Dynamo and Ukraine national team Vladislav Vashchuk, TV presenter Andriy Bednyakov, stand-up comedian Mark Kutsevalov and others. well known to former basketball players – especially Igor Kharchenko, Dmitry Korablev and Alexander Lokhmanchuk.
The main highlight of the exhibition meeting was Usyk’s participation in it. Previously, one of the greatest boxers of our time had demonstrated his football skills, and this is the first time we’ve seen him with a basketball in his hand.
