Italy Team News
Italy clinched an 81-67 win against Angola, though the victory wasn’t without challenges. While they managed a double-digit lead, Angola proved a resilient opponent, particularly in the first three quarters. Gianmarco Pozzeco’s team ramped up their defensive aggression in the final quarter to secure the win.
However, Italy’s three-point shooting, usually a potent aspect of their game, faltered, contributing to their slightly off performance. Simone Fontecchio emerged as a standout player, contributing 19 points and 5 rebounds. Stefano Tonut and Giampaolo Ricci chipped in with 18 and 12 points, respectively.
