Poland created a cinderella story at FIBA EuroBasket 2022, finishing in the Top 4 and eliminating Luka Doncic's Slovenia from the tournament. No one believed it would be possible to achieve such a result in the arguably strongest EuroBasket throughout the last decades. Marcin Gortat, either.
2022-09-19
Although they lost the third-place game against Germany, Poland will remember EuroBasket 2022 for a long time. The incredible story of beating a team that is led by a global superstar to advance to the semifinal stage after 50+ years has captured the attention of the European basketball world.

2022-09-18
There's no better motivation than a painful final experience. Rudy Gobert faces his second-ever final with the senior national team. But this time, he expects a different outcome for Sunday's EuroBasket 2022 clash vs. Spain. With five minutes to play, France went neck to neck with Team USA 70-73 for the Olympics gold.
2022-09-18
Germany lost in the semifinal against Spain in front of their home fans, letting a chance to bring back gold to Germany after nearly 30 years slip away. Now, Gordon Herbert's team is getting ready to face Poland in the third-place match, a fact that the team doesn't take lightly. Dennis Schroder has been the leader of the roster throughout EuroBasket 2022. He sees only one goal in mind.
2022-09-17

2022-09-15
The basketball world is still buzzing about what happened last night. Poland achieved what was thought to be almost impossible. When it seemed like reaching the quarterfinal is a good result, the Polish eliminated the reigning champion Slovenia from EuroBasket 2022.
2022-09-15
Polish national team guard A.J. Slaughter received plenty of attention after his viral picture with his son, Nikola Jokic, and Luka Doncic. At first, it was seen as a simple picture where Slaughter shared the moment with the two biggest stars of the EuroBasket 2022. But after Poland eliminated Slovenia, many joked that Slaughter remained the last man standing in the tournament.
2022-09-15

2022-09-11
