Slovenia won comfortably this followingnoon once morest Cape Verde (92-77) and finished its first group stage with 3 wins in 3 games. Time for serious things now for Luka Doncic and his partners with the start of the second round on Friday once morest Australia.
Despite a slightly less skilful Luka Doncic than usual (19 points at 5/17 shooting including 1/8 from the parking lot and a first half euark), Slovenia easily won once morest Cape Verde, 92-77. All was not perfect this followingnoon for the Slovenians, annoyed for a long time by Cape Verdeans who bravely played their luck. Luka did Luka by taking the game on his own. Particularly inspired by the pass, the leader of the Mavs distributed 9 caviars to his teammates.

Collectively not yet developed, the Slovenians might have saved some strength this followingnoon but were forced to fight until halfway through the fourth quarter.
The main thing is elsewhere, Slovenia secures its first place in group F and validates its ticket for the second round with Georgia. It will be part of group K with Australia, Germany and therefore Georgia. It will nevertheless be necessary to be more consistent collectively from Friday once morest the Australian boomers to avoid a premature exit from the road. The duel between Luka Doncic and the young nugget of the Thunder Josh Giddey promises to be epic., and it will then be necessary to face, on Sunday, the very serious Germany, led by another leader of great talent: Dennis Schröder. The course is not easy and this second round will really pass this Slovenian formation to the revealer following a rather quiet group phase.
