It was harder than expected for Spain to take its match against Germany, but they’re through to the Semifinal Round. Marc Gasol led the team with 28 points and 10 rebounds. Pau Gasol produced as usual - 19 points on 7/15 FG, adding 4 rebounds. Spain struggled early on and trailed Germany until the end of 3rd quarter when they made a 10-0 run and never looked back.
Davis Bertans produced for Latvia, but unfortunately it wasn’t enough as Slovenia won 103-97. Bertans fouled out at the very end but managed 23 points on 8/18 from the field, plus 3 assists.
