Germany vs. Slovenia Preview

The defending world champions started strong in their preparation for EuroBasket in Slovenia, exposing the defensive frailties of a team lacking in NBA talent. Germany, on the other hand, boasts NBA players like Dennis Schroder and Orlando Magic teammates Tristan Da Silva and Franz Wagner.

Under experienced Spanish coach Álex Mumbrú, Germany will be a force to be reckoned with in EuroBasket.
