    MUNICH (Germany) - The whole continent has raved about the dominance of Lauri Markkanen in the build-up to FIBA EuroBasket 2025. But Finland's superstar isn't the only player who has put up some massive numbers during the summer.

    We scoured the preparations tracker and looked for the players who lit up the scoreboard in the past three weeks and found the top 10 performances.

    Markkanen famously had an amazing three-game stretch between August 8-17, torching Belgium for 48 points and 31 points and then pouring in 42 points against Poland.

    The third highest output of the summer came from Pelle Larsson, Sweden's 24-year-old guard who will be making his EuroBasket debut and dropped 32 points on Poland.

    The rest of the list showed that the big stars are in good form with FIBA EuroBasket 2025 tipping off on August 27.

    Germany's NBA superstar Franz Wagner delivered games with 29 and 26 points; Luka Doncic registered games with 28 and 26 points; and Türkiye's young NBA rising star Alperen Sengun had 26 points in a game as well.
