Greece vs. Bosnia and Herzegovina preview

With Giannis Antetokounmpo on the roster, Greece is easily one of the most formidable teams in this tournament. Antetokounmpo is tied with Lauri Markkanen for the most points averaged this tournament, only behind Luka Doncic.

Irrespective of their previous record, Nurkic's team will come out with confidence, having defeated Greece in their last meeting.

Bosnia has not been very efficient on offense. It has shot only 25% from the 3-point line and under 70% from the free-throw line. On the other hand, Greece has shot over 47% from the 3-point line.

With Antetokounmpo attacking the paint and their 3-point shooters covering him, it could be a difficult task for Bosnia, the 41st-ranked team in the FIBA rankings.
