France Team News

France failed in the first round and was defeated by Canada by 30 points. The first half was fairly even, but in the second half France disappeared from the field, and they scored a total of 25 points for the half. Too little for the quality and experience possessed by the French national team. There is not much time to analyze what and where the “short-circuit” occurred, they must regenerate and prepare for an unpleasant Latvia that plays in a fantastic rhythm.

For France, Evan Fournier was the best again, scoring 21 points, and was one of the few bright spots in France. It should be noted that Collet caused a lot of problems in the first half with Lessort at position 4, who played excellently and scored 12 points. A very bad match was played by Rudy Gobertt, who was not a factor in defense, let alone in attack.

France against Latvia must go all or nothing, but the question is how well they have regenerated and prepared, first of all mentally.

France Team News

Latvia has been one of the most annoying basketball teams for years now, and when they get into a shooting rhythm, they can beat even the best teams on the planet. All players on the roster shoot for three points, and at very high percentages, so they can be a real landmine for everyone in group H. This was best felt by the basketball players of the Lebanon selection, who received 109 points from Latvia, of which 18 three-pointers from 35 attempts. Dairis Bertans was fantastic, shooting 6/7 three-pointers, while Davis most likely saved himself for France, where his performance will be much more needed.

They play without their first star Kristaps Porzingis but they look very good and compact. Lebanon is not a relevant opponent, but they again showed that they are in great shape. They are well-coordinated and understand each other very well. It is necessary to single out the young Zagars playmaker who phenomenally creates positions for his shooters but also for the centers, above all for Pasecniks. In the match against Lebanon, he had as many as 11 assists.

France vs Latvia Prediction

France must win and improve their impression, but the question is whether they have recovered from the shock and slap that Canada gave them. They don’t have much room for regrets, and Latvia will certainly try to take advantage of that. The Latvians are in a great rhythm, and we believe that they will properly torture France, and score over 72.5 points.
