On September 2nd Beijing time, the EuroBasket championship odds were updated. The German men's basketball team has surged to the top spot due to their outstanding performance, overtaking Serbia who previously held first place. Meanwhile, Turkey climbed from eighth before the tournament started to third now. The latest top ten championship odds are as follows—
1. Germany +200, 2. Serbia +275, 3. Turkey +650, 4. Greece +1000, 5. France +1500, 6. Spain, Lithuania, and Italy all at +3000, 9. Latvia +4000, 10. Finland and Slovenia both at +5000.
Germany currently holds a perfect 4-0 record in the group stage, leading Group B with an average winning margin of 33.5 points per game. Notably, in their latest match against Great Britain, the German team won by a staggering 63 points, setting the record for the largest margin of victory in EuroBasket history. The previous record was 55 points: in the 2001 EuroBasket, Yugoslavia defeated Estonia 113-58. Germany’s star duo shines brightly: Schröder averages 22.3 points, 2.5 rebounds, 5.5 assists, and 1.3 steals per game, shooting 53.4% overall and 44.4% from three; Wagner averages 21.3 points, 4.8 rebounds, 3.8 assists, and 1.8 steals per game, with shooting percentages of 55.8% overall and 50% from beyond the arc.
The Serbian men's basketball team also stands undefeated at 4-0, currently second in Group A. Serbia’s drop from top favorite status is largely due to Bogdan’s hamstring tear, forcing him to withdraw early from EuroBasket—a significant blow to the team. However, Jokic has had a relatively light workload during the group stage, playing only 23.9 minutes per game while contributing 19.8 points, 9.3 rebounds, and 4.5 assists. Serbia’s real challenge awaits later, such as their final group match against Turkey, currently leading Group A.
The matchup between Şengün and Jokic is highly anticipated, and Turkey’s flawless 4-0 group stage record with an average winning margin of 23.7 points makes them a strong contender. Their championship odds have surged from eighth to third, exciting Rockets fans especially due to Şengün’s form. In an average of 27.2 minutes per game, he delivers an impressive all-around stat line: 20 points, 8.8 rebounds, 6.5 assists, 0.8 steals, and 1.0 blocks, with an astonishing shooting percentage of 68.1%.
