Tristan missed an open 3 during that stretch, but he still in the closing lineup with Franz. Not able to point out.
Tristan just finished an alley oop baseline dunk from his center. 73-70, Germany.

It was Franz, to a rolling Kratzer, with a nice flip up to Tristan. Fun highlight. Franz hits two free throws. 75-70, Germany. Both teams taking this very seriously.

Dennis finds Franz in the post, just missed a spinning left and-1 rim attempt. Under a minute left, Wagner
hits both free throws. I believe that’s 17 points for Franz. 77-70.

Bonga briefly came in for Tristan but fouled out. So basically Da Silva will have played the final 7 minutes of crunch time.

Germany wins 80-70. Even without Luka, holding Slovenia to 3 points the last 7 minutes of the game is a good defensive sign.

Didn’t hit a 3, but 17 points for Franz.
7 points for Tristan who gets the postgame interview, he closed the game on the floor.

I knew he wouldn’t . Every offseason there’s a big weight loss or muscle gain story and the guy doesn’t look that different. “The league is in trouble.”

I haven’t seen a hitch.

Goga did play off the bench yesterday in Georgia’s loss in Lithuania. https://fibalivestats.dcd.shared.geniussports.com/u/LKF/2682540/bs.html#ASFSK

Shot 1-of-5 from 3, so he’s getting up attempts.

His release is faster. But he still pushes the ball and it lacks the rotation elite shooters have.

Still, his make rate is fine. If this is his shot and he can get a 36% three ball on 3 attempts per game, fine.

The step back three with that quick release will help his game.
