This triumph secures them a place in the quarterfinals, where they will face Germany, the World Cup champion.\n\nSlovenia dominated the first quarter with a score of 29-11. Don\u010di\u0107 reached 30 points at halftime, marking the fourth time in the tournament that he has surpassed this figure. Despite Italy&#8217;s comeback, which got within one point in the final minutes, Don\u010di\u0107 remained calm and secured the victory with precise free throws.\n\n<h2>Georgia advances to the quarterfinals after defeating France<\/h2>\n\nGeorgia secured its place in the quarterfinals for the first time in its history, after a resounding 80-70 victory against France. The team celebrated enthusiastically on the court, showing their joy for this historic achievement.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Incredible. I am very happy, congratulations to my teammates, to everyone, to our fans in Georgia and here. France is amazing, but today we played better in defense and attack.<\/p><cite>Giorgi Shermadini<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nFrance, runner-up in 2022, failed to advance to this stage. Georgia will face Finland in the next round, a team that previously eliminated Serbia, led by Nikola Jokic.\n\n\n<p>France&#8217;s low three-point shooting percentage (6 of 36) was crucial, while Georgia scored 10 of 18 three-pointers and took advantage of free throws, making 20 of 24. Tornike Shengelia&#8217;s game, with 24 points and 8 rebounds, was fundamental for Georgia.<\/p>\n\n\nForward Zaccharie Risacher found some form as France fought to get back into the game, and with three minutes to go the score was 68-68.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Don\u010di\u0107 leads Slovenia to the EuroBasket quarter-finals Los Angeles Lakers star Luka Don\u010di\u0107 shone with 42 points and 10 rebounds, guiding Slovenia to an 84-77 victory over Italy in the EuroBasket tournament.
