Cyprus takes on Greece on Saturday, August 30, at the Spyros Kyprianou Arena in Cyprus.
Cyprus has the home court advantage in this game, but it's a very tough assignment to go up against Greece. It also does not help that Cyprus is coming off a disappointing 91-64 loss to Bosnia and Herzegovina. They had no answer the whole game, as they fell by 21 points after the first half.
Only two players from Cyprus scored in double digits in the loss. Konstantinos Simitzis topscored with 22 points on an impressive 5-11 shooting from the three-point line. Filippos Tigkas also had an all-around game of 12 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists, and 3 steals.
On the other end, Greece defeated Italy, 75-66, in their first game. The Greeks raced to a 22-12 lead after the opening period, establishing enough cushion to hold off the Italians.
Only superstar forward Giannis Antetokounmpo scored in double digits for Greece, but it was more than enough. The Milwaukee Bucks star was unstoppable the entire game, producing 31 points on a stellar 70% shooting. As a team, Greece also shot 51.9% from the field.
Look for Giannis and the Greeks to have an easier time against Cyprus.
