09/10/2023With a 113:111 win over Olympic champions USA, Germany surprisingly reached the final on Friday. National coach Gordon Herbert’s team is there today (2.40 p.m./ Live stream from 2:15 p.m) slightly favored against Serbia. Previously, the bronze medal was in 2002 in the USA with a star player Dirk Nowitzki the only German medal at the World Championships. At the European Championships, winning the title in 1993 and bronze in 2022 were the greatest successes.
Opponent Serbia, which is coached by former national coach Svetislav Pesic, won against Canada 95:86 in the semifinals.
The Canadians won the game for third place against the USA on Sunday with 118:127 (111:111, 56:58) after overtime. After seventh place at the 2019 World Cup in China, the USA, who competed without the big superstars, are going home without any precious metal for the second time in a row.
NBA professional Dillon Brooks was the best scorer with 39 points for the Canadians, who won a World Cup medal for the first time. Star player Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had 31 points. The USA’s most accurate shooter was Anthony Edwards with 24 points. The five-time champion’s last World Cup title to date came in 2014.
