By Eurohoops team/ info@eurohoops.net

With Dragan Milosavljevic scoring 17 points and Bogdan Bogdanovic adding 11 plus 8 assists, once again being utlized as a play-maker, Serbia defeated Greece 69 – 67 in Athens.

For the Greek national tournament that closed the tournament with 1/3, Kostas Sloukas posted 13 points and 6 assists, Giannis Bourousis scored 11 and Nick Calathes 10.

Kostas Missas’ team was once again betrayed by the lackluster exterior shooting (3/25) losing plenty of open looks from beyond the arc.

On the other end, the Serbian national team had a balanced performance with 22 assists, a fine number for 72 points scored. Thanks to this game they were leading up by 14, 55 – 69 with five minutes and despite being scoreless in the last stretch of the match, Greece didn’t manage to make a complete comeback.
