Cyprus made their EuroBasket debut as co-hosts in Group C as underdogs. They entered the tournament with zero past qualifications and little expectation. Their highlight came from naturalized forward Darral Willis, who starred in qualifiers with 14.8ppg and 9.2rpg, anchoring their inside game.
Cyprus fell 0-3, after their recent loss against Spain, in which they were defeated 91-47. Darral Willis led the team with 16 points and 6 rebounds, but his efforts alone was not enough. In the first half they only scored a total of 17 points and were never even close to chasing Spain.
Offensively they were poor with 47.1% 2PT FG and 23.8% from the three-point line, evident in their total points scored (47). Their 11 assists and 18 turnovers also reflect their poor team play. Defensively they managed to grab 24 rebounds, 5 steals and 1 block. For their upcoming game, Cyprus must slow Georgia’s tempo, protect the glass and rely on Willis inside plus Tigkas playmaking.
Georgia kicked off the tournament with a stunning upset over Spain, winning 83–69. Alexander Mamukelashvili starred with 19 points, 7 rebounds, and 6 assists, while Georgia dominated the glass 46–29 to control the game’s tempo early.
However, in their second group game, they faced a tough defeat to Italy, falling 62-78 despite persistent effort. Their form then faltered further in the third matchup, a heavy 94-53 loss to Greece, exposing Georgia’s defensive vulnerabilities.
Currently at 1-2, Georgia remains within Group C but must regroup strategically to stay competitive. Their blend of inside scoring (51.4% 2PT FG) strength and rebounding (36.3) dominance keep expectations high. For their next game against Cyprus, if Georgia can stabilize on defense and maintain offensive execution, they can win the game and lift the chances of reaching the knockout stage.
