Defeat before the Eurobasket debut
The Slovenian national team said goodbye to the last windows for the 2023 World Cup before EuroBasket with a defeat by Germany. The combination of Dennis Schroder (17 points) and Franz Wagner (16) was too much for the Balkans in another great performance from Luka Doncic.
The Mavs player was unable to avoid the fall due to 90 to 71, which increases uncertainty about Slovenia’s real potential. Even so Doncic finished with 23 points on 7-of-16 shooting from the field, 6 rebounds and 6 assists.
Luca’s left-back step is well on its way to becoming the most recognizable shot of the 21st century. ✍️#FIBAWC | #WinForSlovenia X @kzs_si 🇸🇮
