Waste of talent: unacceptable ending for Nikola Jokic (1)

2022-09-13

When Italy was on such a miraculous shooting streak, even the best player in the world may not have helped Serbia to survive a 3-point shower.

These European powerhouses have only faced each other eight times in major competitions, including Serbia's 83-67 quarter-finals win at FIBA EuroBasket 2017.

Nicolo Melli on Italy's group stage finish: 'We qualified from the worst possible position'

2022-09-09

Having lost to Greece and Ukraine, Italy knew that regardless of the outcome of their clash with Great Britain, their fate had been predetermined.  As Croatia beat Ukraine, essentially forcing a three-way tie, EuroBasket Group C hosts would end up in fourth place. It's not ideal, but it's still a finish that allows them to compete in the Round of 16 hosted in Berlin this weekend.
