Which team will claim the last ticket to the Round of 16?
MUNICH (Germany) - 15 teams have already booked their tickets to Berlin for the knockout stages, but there is still one spot to be decided from Group D on Wednesday.
MUNICH (Germany) - 15 teams have already booked their tickets to Berlin for the Knockout Phase, but there is still one spot to be decided from Group D on Thursday.
Czech Republic or Israel?
That is the burning question on the final day of the Group Phase as the hosts in Prague battle to avoid an early exit.
Czech Republic have only won one of their last eight games at EuroBasket - losing seven by double-digit margins - while Israel have won just two of their 14 games against host nations in EuroBasket history, most recently against Germany in 1985.
Here's a look at the two groups ahead of Thursday's action:
