Eurobasket is over for us. Lot of emotions now, but in general we lost against stronger team. And Giannis wasn't even biggest problem today. We gave too much freedom for Toliopoulos who made few important 3-pointers. But main problem was our offence. Without Jokubaitis our offence was main. Also, we didn't had stretch four who would be dangerous at 3pt line what would be game changer.
Congrats to Greece, deserved.

Turkey continues its unbeaten run. Under Alperen Şengün's leadership, we're having a very good tournament, with all our players playing with great focus and passion.
Poland was good in the first quarter, but not bad, but Turkey was more controlled in the following quarters.
Alperen Şengün also became the youngest player in Euro Basket history to record a triple-double: 19 points, 12 rebounds, and 10 assists. He's the only Turkish basketball player in tournament history to achieve this feat.

Triple double from Sengun, I think it's first ever Eurobasket where we saw already 2 triple doubles. And it's not over yet. In general, confident Turkey win, you controlled whole game, despite Poland doing their best.
Now there is derby between Greece and Turkey in semifinal. Should be hot.

Turkey defeated Poland without any difficulty. It was an easy match for us and I already expected it to be.
Alperen Şengün became the youngest player in Europe to record a triple-double. I’m sure we’ll see many more triple-doubles from him.

Greece beat Lithuania and became Turkey’s opponent.
Giannis Antetokounmpo once again played very well and was the player who brought victory to his team.

Turkey vs Greece match will be exciting. Of course, my favorite is Turkey, but it won’t be an easy game. Hopefully, we’ll win and reach the final.

Giannis alone is half of Greece’s team. I agree that it will be a tough match, but i don’t think the Turks should worry. You have a lot of good players, and Sengun stands out, but not in a way that he can carry the whole team. You rely on team play, which many teams don’t have, since they depend on individuals. For example, Giannis, Docic, Jokic, and others. Jokic was basically the whole Serbian team, and he couldn’t carry so many games by himself. One bad game from Giannis, and Greece is in trouble. I don’t have a favorite since Serbia got eliminated, but i think Turkey has the best players and can win the tournament.

Alperen Şengün became the fifth basketball player to record a triple-double at the European Championship.

1995 - Toni Kukoc
2017 - Andrei Mandache
2022 - Mateusz Ponitka
2025 - Luka Doncic
2025 - Alperen Şengün

FIBA did not include Stojan Vrankovic in the 1995 list because his block count was not confirmed.

Alperen carried his team once again today. I'm curious to see if the young player can lead Türkiye to its first European basketball championship.
