The European Championship sensationally left the current winner and the main favorite – Slovenia.
No more favorites. EuroBasket 2022 notably left out the reigning champion – Slovenia. The team, led by NBA superstar Luka Doncic, lost to the Polish team, which we remember earlier knocked Ukraine out of the draw.
Note that the Poles started the match very well and after the first half they won +19. However, the Slovenian stars, who spent the third quarter very well, almost recovered all the backlog and before the decisive segment, the Polish team only led by +1. But, at the end of the meeting, the Slovenian team was not enough. 90:87 – in favor of Poland.
