Olympic Games - Basketball - Semi-finals
Slovenia played very well in all their games at the Olympics - they beat the weaker opponents (Japan and Germany) by 35 and 24 points, the stronger opponents (Argentina and Spain) by 18 and 8 points.
Slovenia's biggest star - Doncic, is averaging over 26 points per game, plus 8 assists per game and 10 rebounds per game. Doncic is the type of player who uses his skill to tie up defenders where he has to be defended by two or even three players, opening up good scoring positions for his teammates who are able to convert those chances. Slovenia has a very good shooting success rate so far in the tournament - in the previous games they have 50%, 53.8%, 41.9% and 54% success rate.
On the other hand, France's results were not so obvious, although they first beat the USA, but it was the first game of the Americans in the tournament, but then, for example, they won against Iran by only 17 points, against Italy by only 9 points.
The Slovenians had a very attractive and quality performance and I think they deserve to advance to the finals. I hope they will succeed and win this match by at least 4 points.
H2H:
Slovenia 95:78 France (2017 - EuroBasket)
My bet:
Handicap including extra time: Slovenia -3.5 @ 1.85 (local bookie)
