EuroBasket 2025: Doncic & Giannis Lead Slovenia & Greece to Quarters

Greece has negotiated its match very well against Israel, threatening but which has never found the key. The Greeks had to work while Israel had returned to two points in the 3rd quarter. But, well worn by their Milwaukee Bucks star, Giannis Antetokounmpo (37 points, 10 rebounds), the Hellenes did not flank.

After having created the sensation by eliminating Spain in the group phase, they will find Lithuania in quarters.

With a Luka Doncic in very large shape (42 points), Slovenia also fell into the Italian trap (84-77). Despite a comfortable 16-point lead at the start of the last quarter, the Slovenes have made some frights by letting Italy return, thanks in particular to Simone Fontecchio (22 points), at a point more than three minutes from the end.

But the leader of the Los Angeles Lakers Luka Donteic then took matters into his own hands and the Slovenians got back to the place to finish without incident. They will face Germany in quarters.

Poland also validated its ticket by getting rid of Bosnia (80-72) and will face Turkey for a place in the last square.
