Four players, Ekan Osmani (28 points), Cedi Osman (17 points), Alferen Sengun (15 points, 12 rebounds, 6 assists) and Sain Larkin (15 points), scored double digits in Turkey.
Greece's Yannis Antetokounmpo worked hard with 12 points, 12 rebounds and 5 assists, but his scoring ability did not meet expectations. Kostas Slucas applied with 15 points, but the rest of the players were extremely sluggish.
From the beginning, Turkey overwhelmed Greece perfectly. Each quarter of Turkey showed better competitiveness than Greece and was reflected in the score.
In the first half, Turkey, leading 49-32, won without much crisis. They will meet Germany in the final. Germany is the strongest favorite in this tournament.
However, the Turkiye is also not easy. He won all five games in the group stage. Even Serbia was defeated. They beat Sweden and Poland one after another, and eventually defeated Greece as well.
He made it to the finals for the first time in 24 years since advancing to the finals of the tournament held in his country in 2001. It is his first attempt to win the EuroBasket.
The game drew attention as an MVP competition. It was an ace match between Antetokounmpo and Sengun.
However, Antetokounmpo did not have good attack efficiency. Sengun showed up as an all-around player, but there was a separate main character. Turkiye easily solved the game when Osmani and Osman scored.
