After dropping 37 points against Israel in the round of 16 of the 2025 EuroBasket, Giannis Antetokounmpo looks to lead Greece again in their quarterfinal showdown with Lithuania, which features a plethora of talented big men.
DraftKings offers a payout of $235 for a $100 bet if Giannis Antetokounmpo, who is averaging 30.0 points in the continental basketball event, scores at least 35 points against Jonas Valanciunas-led Lithuania.
Current Form:
Greece barged into the quarterfinal round of the 2025 EuroBasket after outlasting Israel 84-79 in the round of 16. Antetokounmpo carried the whole of Greece on his back, powering through with 37 points and 10 rebounds. Greece, who led by as many as 14 points, shot 49 percent from the floor and outrebounded the Israelis 45-30.
Lithuania punched their ticket to the quarterfinal stage of the EuroBasket following an 88-79 win over the host nation, Latvia. The win propelled Lithuania back to the final 8 of the EuroBasket after losing to Spain, 94-102 OT, at the 2022 EuroBasket. Arnas Velicka scored a team-high 21 points while Deividis Sirvydis and Azoulas Tubilis scored 18 points each to help Lithuania overcome Kristaps Porzingis’ monster double-double of 34 points and 19 rebounds. The Lithuanians shot 49 percent from the floor and hounded Latvia to 40 percent field goal shooting. Lithuania also dominated the glass, outrebounding Latvia 32-22.

Our Greece vs Lithuania Prediction
Lithuania and Greece are both traditional basketball powerhouses with a rich history of success at the European and world levels. In this particular matchup, I am leaning towards the Greeks only because they have a do-it-all juggernaut who can impact the outcome of the game immensely. Giannis is averaging 30.0 points per game in this tournament and has just exploded for 37 points against Israel. Although Lithuania has several talented big men in their roster, including NBA veteran Jonas Valanciunas, none of them possesses the mobility and athleticism to contain a freak of nature like Giannis.
no mistake, Greece will not have an easy time in this showdown with Lithuania, which has the depth and experience in a high-leverage match. As a matter of fact, Lithuania is trending as a solid bet to cover +7.0 points on DraftKings because they will not allow Greece to blow them out if they are to lose this match. Still, having Giannis playing at his prime is such a luxury a team can have in a win-or-go-home situation. Giannis understands that this is probably the last chance he will have a legitimate shot at a EuroBasket title since he will be 34 by the time the next continental tournament takes place. Judging by the staggering numbers he has pumped up in this tourney, Antetokounmpo means business, and it’s a scary sight for the remaining team in this competition.
