The Latest Breaking News from Eurobasket

Anigwe will leave the Sky on Sunday and will miss six to eight games.

Paris (AFP) - France on Thursday said it would boot veteran point guard Thomas Heurtel off the national basketball team if he played for Zenit St Petersburg.

For Spain, almost all of the names on the national team’s roster have changed in recent years. The expectations didn’t. And neither did the results. Juancho Hernangomez of the Toronto Raptors scored 27 points, his brother Willy Hernangomez added 14 and won tournament MVP honors, and Spain topped France 88-76…

Hernengomez put up an impressive 27 points, 5 rebounds, and 2 steals in just over 26 minutes of game time.

Berlin (AFP) - Spain started fast, racing to a 10-point lead, and then held off an experienced French team the rest of the way to win the Eurobasket final 88-76 in Berlin on Sunday.  

Rockets prospect Usman Garuba finished strong and had a statement block for Spain, which won EuroBasket 2022 with Sunday’s championship victory over Rudy Gobert and France.

Fellow Boston alum Daniel Theis also played a major role in Germany beating Poland for bronze.

The former Celtics signee has averaged 21.6 points, 2.4 rebounds, and 7.3 assists (fourth best in the European Basketball Championships) per game in the Eurobasket.

The Celtics alum's EuroBasket swan song was quite impressive -- but ultimately not enough.
