The successor of Kęstutis Kemzūra (now at the helm of Lithuania) will guide the team in the next two years and the immediate goal is the qualification for Eurobasket next year. The 42-year-old will have Roberts Štelmahers (currently coaching Perlas) as an assistant coach and will remain in charge of Russian side Enisey Krasnoyarsk.

Bagatskis is a widely known former Latvia player, having played four Eurobasket tournaments, the last of which was in 2003 in Sweden, where he averaged 14.3 points a game.

Israel, Finland, Italy and Montenegro are in Latvia’s way to reach Eurobasket 2011.
