SAN ANTONIO — San Antonio Spurs' Jeremy Sochan is helping his home country of Poland to attract visitors.
The Spurs forward joined Poland's Ministry of Sport and Tourism to spread the word about how beautiful Poland is and why a tourist should make it a destination spot.
From Poland's mountains and big cities to its quieter side, Sochan wants everyone to visit immediately.
"Poland, more than you expected," he says in the commercial.
Sochan is sidelined with a thumb injury that required surgery. He was having a breakout year, averaging 15.4 points per game, including 7.7 rebounds and 3.0 rebounds.
Before the injury, he had a 109.0 defensive rating, 43 steals, and 23 blocks, and his ability to defend multiple positions was vital in the Spurs' hot defensive start to the season.
