The Slovenia women’s national basketball team enters the FIBA Women’s EuroBasket 2027 Qualifiers with confidence and renewed ambition. Drawn into Group B alongside Latvia, Netherlands, and Estonia, Slovenia aims to build on the form that saw them dominate their European Championship Qualifiers, where they won five of six games.
Led by naturalized center Jessica Shepard, Slovenia has added interior power and rebounding depth to complement its fast-paced, guard-driven offense. The team’s improved defensive rotations and tempo make them a tough matchup for any opponent.
In their recent outing, The Slovenia women’s national basketball team delivered an impressive performance to defeat Serbia 84–69 in the FIBA Women’s EuroBasket 2025 group stage. Slovenia came out firing, scoring 30 points in the opening quarter to seize early control and never looked back.
However, consistency across qualification windows in November 2025 and March 2026 will be vital, especially in tricky away fixtures. With momentum and depth on their side, Slovenia stands out as a favorite to top their group and move closer to securing a EuroBasket 2027 berth. Slovenia on average scores 70 points per game, while allowing opponents 64.2 points per game.
The Latvia women’s national basketball team enters the FIBA Women’s EuroBasket 2027 Qualifiers looking to reassert their presence among Europe’s elite. Drawn into Group B alongside Slovenia, Netherlands, and Estonia, Latvia aim to build on their solid 4–2 record from the previous European Championship qualifying campaign.
Led by experienced scorers like Kitija Laksa, Latvia’s offense remains their greatest weapon. Their 96–90 win over Ireland in the last cycle showcased their ability to perform under pressure and execute in clutch moments. When their perimeter shooting clicks, they’re capable of overwhelming any defense.
However, depth and consistency remain concerns, particularly with key players battling injuries in recent times. Maintaining energy across both qualification windows in November 2025 and March 2026 will be crucial. With experience and offensive firepower, Latvia are genuine contenders to advance to the next round. Latvia on average scores 77.2 points per game, while allowing opponents to score 74.8 points per game on average.

| Kitija Laksa | 19.3 | 3.2 | 1.5 | 1.5/1 |
