Eurobasket Report – Lauvergne, France split last group games
In France’s narrow 78-75 win against Poland Tuesday, Lauvergne led his team in rebounds with 11 but struggled to score, shooting just 1 for 9 from the field. However, he added 3 assists and went 4 for 5 from the free-throw line for a total of 6 points. However, his fortunes (and those of France) were reversed in Wednesday’s game. The French lost to Goran Dragic-led Slovenia to close the group stage in a lackluster 95-78 game that was decided in the middle two quarters.
