Antetokounmpo s knee injury! NBA second place is confirmed to be reimbursed! Doncic advances to the top 16 of the European Cup

On September 3, the group stage of the men's basketball European Cup: Antetokounmpo was absent due to a knee injury, Greece lost to Bosnia and Herzegovina 77-80; Belgium lost to Israel 89-92; Georgia defeated Cyprus 93-61; Slovenia defeated Iceland 87-79; Italy narrowly defeated Spain 67-63; France defeated Poland 83-76.

The French men's basketball team was hit again: NBA second-tier Alex Saar suffered a calf injury and was reimbursed for this European Cup. Since Vinban Yama and Gobert were not playing, France had a shortage of players in the domestic line, and now France only has Jaitai in the center position. NBA No. 1 pick Rissache played for 15 minutes and 22 seconds, making 0 of 4 shots and only scored 0 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists.

There is also a high-ranking rookie in the French team: Wizards No. 7 pick Coolibali, who scored 1 of 3 shots in this game, scored only 3 points, 2 rebounds and 1 assist, and 5 fouls left the court at the same time. These two brothers were awkward together, how did France defeat Poland? Yabuselle exploded: 12 of 20 shots, 6 of 12 of 3-pointers, 6 of 10 free throws, scoring 36 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks.

Greece has 3 wins and 1 loss and is temporarily ranked first in Group C. Italy also had 3 wins and 1 loss, ranking second in Group C, and the two teams advanced to the top 16 together. Antetokounmpo has missed two games due to knee discomfort. In the last game against Spain, I don’t know if he can play. Spain and Georgia in the same group both won 2 wins and lost 2, and Spain will definitely fight against Greece.

Healthy Antetokounmpo is still a big killer for FIBA. In this European Cup, he averaged 27.2 minutes per game, scored 29 points, 7.5 rebounds, 3 assists, 1.5 steals and 3 turnovers, and his three shooting percentages: 74.2%, 100%, 64.7%. He is tied for Markkanen per game and tied for second place in the European Cup, second only to Doncic (31.3 points per game).

Today, Slovenia narrowly defeated Iceland 87-79 and advanced to the top 16 ahead of schedule. Doncic made 8 of 22 shots, 2 of 10 three-pointers, 8 of 11 free throws, scored 26 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals, 1 block, 3 turnovers, 4 fouls, plus or minus value +16 highest in the game. Slovenia's defense is too poor. Doncic often switches to the inside and was banned three fouls in the first quarter.

Doncic felt bad in the first half, scoring 3 of 10 shots and 9 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists. Fortunately, the second half was adjusted in time and led the team to defeat Iceland without any danger. In this European Cup, Doncic played 4 games, averaging 33.4 minutes per game, scoring 31.3 points, 7.3 rebounds, 8.3 assists, 3.3 steals and 4 turnovers, with three shooting percentages: 40.5%, 27.5%, 86.2%.

Doncic averaged points and steals per game, both ranked first in the European Cup and second in assists per game. Slovenia has 2 wins and 2 losses, temporarily ranking fourth in Group D. All four qualifying places in Group D have been determined: Israel, Poland, France and Slovenia, Iceland and Belgium were eliminated. Currently, 12 teams are in the top 16 and there are 4 places.

The European Cup group stage has been back-to-back again. Before the group stage has been completed, many players have been reimbursed: Serbia's Bogdan, Lithuania's Yokubetis, German center Vogtmann, and French second-guess Saar. The Latvian coach recommends expanding the team's roster and not limiting it to 12 players, so as to reduce injuries. The coach of the Spanish men's basketball team is also dissatisfied. He has to stay up late to wait for a urine test between two games back-to-back. What do you think about the FIBA ​​schedule?
