Greek youth basketball U18 reaches top‑8, exits

Entities: Greece U18 basketball team · Serbia under‑18 basketball team · France U18 men's basketball team · Slovenia U18 basketball team · Serbia U18 men's basketball team

Overview

The Greek under‑16 side remains unbeaten in the Basano tournament, with wins over Italy and Slovenia and a pending clash against Turkey. In the U18 EuroBasket, after an overtime loss to Israel the team rebounded with victories over Austria (81‑53) and France (66‑65) to claim third in Group A. A 78‑77 knockout‑stage win over Serbia, highlighted by 21 points from Χρυσόστομος Χατζηλάμπρου, secured a place in the tournament’s top‑eight and set up a quarter‑final against the winner of the Spain‑Bulgaria tie. Greece’s run ended in that quarter‑final, falling 69‑66 to a resurging Spanish side that erased a 29‑point first‑half deficit. Contributions from Δημήτρης Πούλος (16) and Αλέξανδρος Θωμάκος (12) were noted. The exit concludes a strong showing by Greece’s youth squads, underscoring their defensive improvements and competitive spirit.
