The group of death at the basketball tournament in Paris once again "swallowed" Greece...
The team led by the two-time NBA MVP Janis Adetokumbo after the defeat against Canada registered another failure and is now on the edge of the abyss...
Better than "Helen" in Lille were the basketball players of Spain, who properly returned to the race to Paris and the quarterfinals - 84:77.
Vasilis Spanulis' men opened the match better, they had an eight-point lead, but Serđo Skariol's team was already at plus 14 (49:35) by halftime.
However, at the end of the match, the Greeks got close to 80:77, and in less than half a minute they had an attack to equalize, but after the ball had circulated for a long time, the only one who dared to shoot for three points was Adetokumbo - and he didn't. was precise.
After that, the "fury" ended the story at the "Pierre Moreau" stadium.
Memphis basketball player Santi Aldama is playing great at the start of the tournament, so he was the most effective today with 19 points - Sergio Ljulj followed him with 13, Willy Hernangomez with 11, Rudi Fernandes with 10.
On the other side, Adetokumbo scored 27 points and had 11 rebounds, while Vasilis Toliopoulos scored 14 points.
Spain, which was defeated by Australia in the first round, plays against Canada in the last round, while the Greeks go to the "kangaroos".
The two best selections will surely end up in the quarterfinals, while the third-placed team will have to wait for the outcome of the remaining two groups.
