At the tournament in Finland, a heavy hurdle is now waiting for the DBB team in the quarter-finals. But you already know each other very well.

The German basketball players will meet Slovenia in the European Championship quarter-finals on Wednesday with NBA superstar Luka Dončić. The Slovenes prevailed in Riga in the round of 16 against Italy thanks to a new gala performance by Dončić with 84:77 (50:40). Doncic scored 42 points, including 30 in the first two quarters.

In preparation, the German team had already played against Slovenia twice and won both duels. There had also been a German success on the way to the title at the 2023 World Cup. Germany is still unbeaten at this European Championship and goes to the quarter -finals as a favorite.
