EuroBasket 2017 Group A: Slovenia is still perfect, Greece-Poland for the 4th place

Unbeaten Slovenia used a dominant second quarter to fuel a 102-75 victory over winless Iceland and continue their bid to top Group A.
After a tight start, Slovenia dominated the second period to outscore a fading Iceland by 19 points for the term and cruised from there.
Goran Dragic scored 21 points for Slovenia, while Martin Hermannsson scored 18 for Iceland, who will play their final game of the tournament against Finland on Wednesday.



France booked a place in the Final Phase with a comeback 78-75 victory over Poland, who are now dangerously placed at 1-3.
After trailing by 12 points midway in the third, France clicked into gear after that with Thomas Heurtel leading the way with 23 points, while Adam Waczyknski scored 15 for Poland. France plays Slovenia on Wednesday to determine who finishes top of Group A.
Poland were without guard AJ Slaughter, who suffered an injury against Finland, but he is expected to line up in their must-win game against Greece.



Finland secured a berth into the Final Phase after overcoming Greece with an 89-77 victory. Greece will now play a knockout game against Poland on Wednesday.
Finland led comfortably throughout until Greece staged a late fightback to get within four points in the last quarter. However, Finland steadied and were led by Petteri Koponen, who starred with 24 points, while Lauri Markkanen again stepped up in the clutch to finish with 17 points. He also had a couple of eye-popping dunks.
Thanasis Antetokounmpo tried hard for Greece with 17 points.
