The defending champion fell in a panic, Doncic scored 34 points! Antetokounmpo is really crazy

11:05am, 30 August 2025【Basketball】

The second day of the European Championship starts, and you can just look at the situation without saying much.

Spain 69-83 Georgia

Spain is also one of the traditional strong teams in European basketball. From 2009 to 2022, they won four European Championships and the team stood on the podium seven times in a row. In the last European Championship, the Spanish team also won the championship. This year's Spanish men's basketball team, veterans such as Rudy Fernandez and Ruhr withdrew from the national team, and their overall strength has been weakened to a certain extent. The team is led by Hernan Gomez brothers and Aldama, who plays for the NBA Grizzlies. In this game, only two Spanish teams were in double digits, Santi Aldama scored 12 points in 5 of 15 shots, and Juan Hernan Gomez scored 13 points in 5 of 10 shots. As the defending champion, they encountered a black goal opening. On the other hand, Georgia is not bad either. Mamu scored 19 points and Bitaze scored 15 points. Both of them are active NBA players.

Slovenia 95-105 Poland

Among them, Doncic played for 36 minutes, scored 7 of 14 shots, scored 34 points, 4 rebounds, 9 assists, 5 steals and 2 blocks. I have to say that Doncic is the only one who can play in Slovenia. The personal abilities of his teammates are too far from him. Doncic may face a situation where he can't stand alone in every game. It is not realistic to fight one against five. This summer, Doncic also completed his weight loss plan and became a muscular man. Judging from his performance in the international arena, he is in good condition, but his feel is a bit unstable. After gaining muscle, he will indeed go through a certain period of adjustment in shooting. I also look forward to his performance in the Lakers next season. On the other side, the best player in this game was Ponetka. He played in 28 minutes, scored 8 of 13 shots, scored 23 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists.

Greece 75-66 Italy

Among them, Giannis Antetokounmpo played for 29 minutes, scored 14 of 20 shots, scored 31 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal. Like Doncic, Antetokounmpo also has a unique look in the Greek men's basketball team, but Antetokounmpo's physical talent and his playing style will appear more dominant in the international arena. He rushed into the basket with the ball with a fire, and no one could stop him. Ordinary people could not limit him at all. Regarding Antetokounmpo's situation in the NBA, he was once involved in trading rumors this summer. Because of Lillard's departure, it was difficult for the Bucks to maintain their competitiveness in winning the championship, and Alphabet began to think of leaving the team at that time. However, it is estimated that no team can eat the letters now, so he will probably continue to stay with the Bucks. On the other hand, the Italian men's basketball team, Feng Taichio, who played for the Heat, felt cold and scored 4 points with only 1 of 11 shots.

France 92-64 Belgium

This year, this French men's basketball team is very young. Veterans such as Batum and Fournier have already left the team. Young players such as Rissache, Saar, Kulibali, and Vinbanyama are rising slowly. They are really full of talents. Among them, Rissache and Wenban are both No. 1 picks, Sal is the second pick in 24 years, and Kulibali is also the talented player with the 7th pick in the first round. Last season, he averaged 12.3 points, 5.0 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game in the Wizards. What is a pity for this year's European Championship is that both Wenbanyama and Gobert were absent due to injuries. Despite this, the French team can also rank third in the European Championship strength list, second only to the German men's basketball team and Serbia. In this game, the French team scored in double digits, with Coolibali 12 points and 7 rebounds, Rissache 10 points, and Yabussele 11 points.

Bosnia and Herzegovina 91-64 Cyprus

In this game, the biggest player was Yusuf Nurkic of Bosnia and Herzegovina. He played for 20 minutes, made 6 of 11 shots and easily punched in, scoring 18 points, 6 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 steals. As the former NBA quasi-All-star center, he was in the Trail Blazers at the peak season. He averaged 16+10 double-double per game. In recent years, Nurkic has been regressing significantly. As he grows older, injuries accumulate, and he also wanders around the league. After leaving the Trail Blazers, he has gone through the Suns and Hornets. His average score per game fell below single digits for the first time after 8 years. Of course, players like Nurkic still have advantages in international competitions. Although they are slow, FIBA ​​has no defense for three seconds after all, so they can retreat in the inside line and not come out, helping them save energy.

Israel 83-71 Iceland

Two data, Israeli men's basketball team, Avdia scored 20 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 blocks, Sorkin scored 31 points and 5 rebounds, and Madal scored 7 points and 6 assists. On Iceland, Friedrickson scored 17 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 steals, Helinasen scored 13 points and 14 rebounds, and Goodmondson scored 8 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists. In this game, Avdia, the highest-level player in the NBA, was a serious main player in the NBA. Last season, he averaged 17 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 steal per game, which is close to the All-Star level. Avdia is only 24 years old this year and still has a lot of room for improvement.
