Teams Preview

Turkey

Turkey delivered a courageous performance in the EuroBasket 2025 championship game but ultimately fell 88-83 to Germany, settling for a well-earned silver medal.

Alperen Sengun carried Turkey with 28 points, while Cedi Osman added 23 points, 5 rebounds and Shane Larkin chipped in with 13 points, 6 rebounds and nine assists.

Offensively, Turkey shot a respectable 47.7% from the field, including 80% from the free throw line, but just 36% from the three point line. Defensively, they were poor on the board and failed to protect the paint, getting outrebounded 26-36. However they did force Germany to commit 15 turnovers compared to their 9 turnovers, but ultimately failed to take advantage and convert them into baskets.

Despite the loss, Turkey’s run was highlighted by resilience, star power, and high-level execution and marks their best EuroBasket finish since 2001 and reaffirms their rise as a major European contender.

Bosnia and Herzegovina

Bosnia and Herzegovina’s EuroBasket 2025 run ended in the Round of 16 after an 80-72 defeat to Poland, a game that began with promise but slipped away in the second half.

Jusuf Nurkic led the way with 20 points and 7 rebounds, while John Roberson added 19 points before exiting late due to injury. Their efforts kept Bosnia competitive, but Poland’s star duo proved overwhelming.

Offensively, Bosnia shot an efficient 43.9% from the field, including 37.9% from the three point line. However, they struggled from the free throw line, converting just 55%. On the defensive end, they were weak on the boards, as they got outrebounded 42-34. They did record 7 steals and 3 blocks, showing some defensive plays, but committed 14 crucial turnovers, which proved costly for them.

Moving forward, they are competing in Group C against top teams like Turkey and Serbia. They must fix defensive lapses and execution to stay competitive in the 2027 World Cup European Qualifiers.
