Slovenia’s EuroBasket 2025: Preparation

Slovenia began its preparation for the EuroBasket tournament with back-to-back games against the world champions, Germany, earlier this month. Doncic and Co. were blown apart in the first game, 103-89, and followed it up with another 80-70 loss.

After back-to-back losses to Germany, Slovenia traveled to face co-host Lithuania on August 15, where they suffered another defeat. They then fell 100-88 to Kristaps Porzingis and Latvia.

Slovenia picked up its first win of the preparation games on August 19, edging Great Britain 93-81. However, just two days later, Nikola Jokić and Serbia handed them a harsh reality check with a dominant 106-72 blowout.

Slovenia’s EuroBasket 2025: History in the tournament

Slovenia will feature in the EuroBasket for the 15th consecutive time, making it to the tournament in every instance since debuting in 1993. Their best finish in their first six appearances was 10th place, before finishing sixth in 2005.

In the following years, Slovenia improved its record, reaching the semifinals in 2009 before sliding to 12th place in 2012. Then in 2017, a young Luka Dončić, alongside NBA veteran Goran Dragić, led the team to its first-ever EuroBasket title with a historic 93-85 win over Serbia in Istanbul.

After their triumph, the Dragons placed sixth in the 2022 edition and now look to recapture their 2017 magic. Entering the tournament as dark horses, they will hope to claim their second-ever crown.
