Cedi Osman, who won the last quarter against Uruguay, evaluated the match.
Our national player said:
“It was a tough match for us. Uruguay has to give credit. Jayson Granger in particular played great. Playing the first matches in tournaments is always difficult. We started very well in the first quarter and played great basketball. But then we stopped doing the right things. The most important thing for us was that we didn’t give up even when we were down 8 points in the last quarter. It was very important to be able to respond as a team and to start the tournament with a win. We are happy that we won. A tough match awaits us tomorrow. We will play with Czechia, we know them. It will be a tough match. We will do our best to win.”
