The Bosnia and Herzegovina national basketball team is the most efficient team in Europe, and this is a confirmation of how well Adis Bećiragić’s team qualified.
The BiH national team has had an excellent qualification for the European Championship. We left Croatia and Cyprus behind us and fully deservedly qualified for the EuroBasket, which will be played in four countries in August and September.
BiH secured its place in the EuroBasket with a victory over Cyprus in Mejdan, Tuzla, in the penultimate round of the qualifiers, which ended last night with an unfortunate defeat to France in Orleans, 76:74.
The French celebrated with points at the sound of the siren, although BiH had the lead throughout the game and ended the match with a modest roster due to injuries to Ajdin Penava and Xavier Castaneda. If the aforementioned duo had remained in the game, the result of the match would definitely have been different.
However, what we can boast about, apart from qualifying for Eurobasket, is the fact that Bosnia and Herzegovina is the most efficient selection in Europe.
Yes, you heard right. The basketball players of BiH scored the highest number of points in the entire qualifiers, in which as many as 32 teams participated.
The basketball players of BiH scored as many as 531 points in the qualifiers, while Croatia is in second place with 516. The reason is also the convincing victories over Cyprus, but they are not the only ones, because we also scored as many as 110 points against Croatia.
Israel is in third place with 493 points in the qualifiers, while Serbia (491), Slovenia and Montenegro (490) can also boast of excellent results.
These are certainly excellent announcements for the upcoming Eurobasket, to which, if the statements from the BiH camp, including the coach Adis Bećiragić, are to be believed, we are going with serious expectations, Klix.ba writes.
