Ercan Osmani shot the lights out for Turkey as they hammered Greece 94-68 on Friday to arrange a Eurobasket closing showdown with Germany.
Osmani acquired Turkey off to an electrifying begin, hitting all 4 of his three-point makes an attempt and registering 14 factors within the first quarter, with the Turks hitting the primary shot of the sport and by no means relinquishing the lead.
The 27-year-old energy ahead made 11 of his 15 pictures to complete the sport with 28 factors and 6 rebounds, and he did loads of work on the defensive finish too, contributing to a group effort that stifled the often dominant Giannis Antetokounmpo, limiting him to 12 factors.
Turkey, whose finest Eurobasket outcome got here with a silver-medal efficiency once they hosted the match in 2001, will face the Germans, who beat Finland earlier on Friday, in Sunday’s decider, with the Finns and Greece colliding within the bronze-medal recreation.
