Hungary lose Varga, Dombai, Dubei for World Cup opener

Hungary's women's basketball team will be without Varga Alíz, Dombai Réka (both injured) and Dubei Debóra (personal decision) for the World Cup, which starts Friday against France. The squad has been reshaped with bigger centers, but the absences weaken their mobility and depth.

What it means

• Varga Alíz and Dombai Réka are out due to injuries; Dubei Debóra withdrew for personal reasons.
• The team will field a less mobile, taller lineup, with opponents known for speed.
• Hungary open against France, who have eight WNBA players, on Friday.

Model read

Hungary are notably weakened for the World Cup opener, losing three key players, which reduces their depth and mobility against a strong French side.
