Franz Wagner drives Germany to EuroBasket semifinals with stellar performance against Slovenia

Orlando Magic’s Franz Wagner showcased his talent and tenacity as he propelled Germany into the EuroBasket semifinals, overcoming a formidable challenge from Slovenia, led by Luka Doncic. In a thrilling quarterfinal matchup on Wednesday, Germany secured a hard-fought comeback victory, finishing the game at 99-91.

The game was a testament to resilience, with Germany rallying back from a deficit in the second half. Despite a tough shooting night, Wagner emerged as the standout performer for Die Mannschaft, scoring 23 points. His shooting percentage, however, was less than ideal, as he made only 5 of his 17 attempts from the field.

Wagner’s contribution extended beyond just scoring; he also demonstrated his ability to perform under pressure at the free-throw line, sinking 13 of 14 attempts. Additionally, he contributed seven rebounds and four assists, proving his versatility on the court.

Germany’s victory not only highlights Wagner’s individual prowess but also the team’s determination. The ability to claw back into the game against a skilled opponent like Slovenia speaks volumes about their character and strategic execution. As they advance to the semifinals, the anticipation builds around Wagner and his teammates, eager to continue their journey in the tournament and solidify their status among Europe’s basketball elite.
