The World's Current Take


It was in these matches that our future opponents were decided - on Wednesday (September 9, 9 p.m.), Rimas Kurtinaitis' men will challenge Giannis Antetokounmpo's troops in the quarterfinals.

The latter is the heart and soul of the Greeks - their only defeat came when the NBA star, who averaged 29 points in the championship, was unable to play against the Bosnians (77:80).

Meanwhile, the Israelis, who performed solidly in the first round of the tournament and unexpectedly defeated the French (82:69), remained in last place in Group D and are now preparing for trips to their clubs.

We remind you that at the start of the European Championship playoffs currently taking place in Riga (Latvia), the Lithuanians denied all the critics and confidently broke the Latvian resistance (88:79).

Match progress:

Despite the fact that a fierce battle took place on the court throughout the entire match, the Israelis were never able to turn the score in their favor and were forced to chase their opponents.

For their part, the Greeks were unable to take the lead - they only built up their biggest lead in the last quarter, when the teams were separated by 14 points (73:59).

The victory for the Greeks was won by G. Antetokounmpo, who scored 35 points (17/20 doubles, 0/2 triples, 10 rebounds, 6 fouls), while veteran Kostas Sloukas added 11 (3/6 doubles, 1/5 triples, 4 rebounds).

For the Israelis, Deni Avdija scored 23 points (4/8 pts, 9/12 pts, 4 errors), 15 – Tomer Ginat (5/8 pts, 5 rebs), 14 – Roman Sorkin (3/5 pts, 2/4 pts, 6 rebs), 10 – Yamas Madaras (3/6 pts, 0/5 pts, 4 rebs, 5 rebs, 5 errors, 5 rebs).
