This how Saras likes his burger and other highlights from #AskSaras

One night before being enshrined as a Euroleague legend, Sarunas Jasikevicius took command of Euroleague’s Twitter account to answer questions from fans about anything and everything. Given we expected the Lithuanian great to be asked all the standard basketball related questions, we opted for a slightly different approach in addressing the legend.

. @bie_basketball It will be cheese, kétchup, tomatoes, mustard… now you made me hungry! And bacon, of course!!

Sadly Saras did not respond to our other request but it’s a movie that needs to be made.

Would you consider doing a buddy cop movie with Zlatan Ibrahimovic? #AskSaras

Here are some of the best questions and answers from an informative session with Saras who isn’t on Twitter personally although has one of the better known fake accounts in his honour.
