It's needless to say we have a whole lot of tradition on the line - two basketball nations to their core with 12 FIBA EuroBasket podium finishes between them are about to clash. But there's quality in the present also with Jonas Valanciunas and Giannis Antetokounmpo going head-to-head.

Lithuania vs Greece - September 9, 20:00 CET
Hold on, because it's about to get very crowded in Riga with the number of Lithuanians ready to support their national heroes in the hunt for their first Semi-Finals in a decade. After eliminating Latvia, Lithuania can now be thought of as the team with home court advantage.
But there is a whole lot of Giannis Antetokounmpo for them to deal with. The Greek Freak is on a mission to carry Greece into the Semi-Finals after 16 years, and the two-time champs are near perfect in that quest. Their only loss came to Bosnia and Herzegovina when Giannis did not suit up, whereas Lithuania lost only to Germany.
It's hard to single out one matchup out of a very interesting bunch: whether its a clash of legends with Spanoulis and Kurtinaitis on the sidelines or Valanciunas vs Giannis in the paint. After Rokas Jokubaitis' injury, Arnas Velicka rose to the occasion in Lithuania's backcourt, but now he's taking on Kostas Sloukas and Tyler Dorsey. For sure, it's a must-watch game.
