Luka Doncic and the Slovenian national team had a forgettable start to the 2025 EuroBasket, suffering losses against Poland and France. However, they snapped the skid with an 86-69 win over Belgium. This victory comes as a much-needed boost and keeps their playoff hopes alive.
Slovenia is fourth in Group D, behind Poland, Israel and France. Poland has secured a playoff spot, while Israel and France are only one win away from doing so in their next two games. Belgium and Iceland, in fifth and sixth, respectively, are out of contention to qualify on Tuesday.
For Slovenia, though, its quest for the title is still open. A win on Sept. 2 will put them in position to qualify, only if Israel and France win against Belgium and Poland, respectively. That would send Luka Doncic and co. into the Round of 16.
