Fresh off a statement-opening win, Turkey dismantled Latvia 93-73, showcasing exceptional shooting and ball movement. They nailed a record-breaking 15 three-pointers in a EuroBasket game. The frontcourt shimmered, led by Alperen Sengun who became the first Turkish player to record 15+ points, 5+ rebounds and 5+ assists in multiple EuroBasket games, finishing with 16 points, 8rebounds and 7 assists in Turkey's win, supported by Cedi Osman, Kenan Sipahi and Ercan Osmani.
Turkey controlled the game from the start, leading for all 40 minutes in front of a sold-out Arena Riga. The biggest lead came in the fourth quarter, reaching 26 points as Turkey completely dominated, shooting an impressive 15/25 (60%) from beyond the arc.
Cedi Osman led Turkey in scoring with 20 points on 4/7 three-point shooting. Guard Kenan Sipahi was also an unexpected boost for Turkey’s offense, contributing 19 points and playing a key role on both ends of the court. Turkey tops Group A with strong momentum.
Czechia started with a stumble, falling 50-62 to Portugal. Their roster lacks veteran point guard Tomas Satoransky, who withdrew due to a back injury. This absence raises concerns over leadership and offensive cohesion.
Among the remaining players, it’s clear that Vit Krejci, the only NBA player in the team and member of the Atlanta Hawks, is expected to take on the most responsibility. He did try against Portugal, but finished with a poor 2-for-8 shooting from the field. Without proper playmakers to create open looks for him, their biggest strength Krejci has struggled.
The team’s biggest issue is that their most talented player is left without the support system he needs. Based on their recent performance, it looks like they are the weakest team in the tournament. However, with a bit of miracle and if they execute well and maintain cohesion they might advance to the round of 16.

Turkey enters the contest as clear favourites, riding high on form, depth, and confidence. Expect aggressive perimeter shooting, solid interior presence, and disciplined execution. Czechia must tighten defensively and rediscover offensive rhythm but missing Satoransky is a tough blow.
Turkey is poised to extend its grip on Group A with another commanding performance. The match is slated to be played at Riga, Arena Riga, Latvia and the scheduled start time is 5:15 PM IST, Local Time: 02:45 PM (GMT+3).
