    LIMASSOL (Cyprus) - The biggest stars of the FIBA EuroBasket 2025 once again came out and delivered as the action continued with a triple-double and more big numbers in Limassol and Katowice.

    But who was the best among the best across six games in Sunday's program?

    We leave that for you to decide by casting your vote in the fan poll below and letting us know who you think deserves to be named Player of the Day.

    Italy waited for the big Simone Fontecchio game, and the NBA star delivered against Bosnia and Herzegovina for a 96-79 Azzurri win - their second in a row. The forward shot the lights out with seven made three-pointers on his way to 39 points for a single-game scoring record for Italy.

    Add in eight rebounds to that for a remarkable daily-high efficiency rating of 41.

    Doncic triple-double powers Slovenia to first victory

    Giannis Antetokounmpo sat out on Saturday, but returned in Greece's convincing 94-53 success over Georgia that made it 3-0. Some rest did good for the Greek Freak who tallied 27 points, 8 rebounds and 4 dimes upon his return to the lineup.

    Every time Luka Doncic steps on the court, there's a chance we'll witness something historical and he delivered just that with a triple-double performance as Slovenia beat Belgium 86-69 for their first win. Slovenia's lucky charm put up 26 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists to record only the fourth EuroBasket triple-double since detailed tracking began in 1995.

    Even though Iceland fell to Poland 84-75 and still await their historic first EuroBasket win, Tryggvi Hlinason had himself a really nice game. The center provided 21 points, 10 rebounds, 3 dimes and 3 blocked shots, but in vain as the hosts celebrated in Katowice.

    Israel came up with one of the biggest upsets of the event so far with their 82-69 success over France and Deni Avdija did most in that big accomplishment. He put the team on his back and tallied 23 points, 8 rebounds and 5 steals, all that in just 26 minutes of play.
