EuroBasket 2017 is nearing its conclusion as teams quickly head towards the championship game on September 17.
Two members of the Kings young core in Bogdan Bogdanovic and Georgios Papagiannis are representing their native nations in the competition and both helped their squads all the way to the quarterfinals of the tournament.
Papagiannis and Greece fell just short in a close contest with Russia, defeated 74-69 on Wednesday. The Kings big man saw a somewhat limited role in his first time on the Greek’s senior national team and averaged 3.4 points, 2.3 rebounds, and one block in 10.
