RIGA (Latvia) – Germany were crowned FIBA EuroBasket 2025 champions after beating T\u00fcrkiye in a thrilling Final on Sunday.<\/p>\n

It was their first continental triumph since their maiden success in 1993; adding to their FIBA Basketball World Cup 2023 glory to become the fourth national team to hold both titles at the same time.<\/p>\n

Isaac Bonga was the TCL Player of the Game with 20 points and 5 rebounds in his side’s 88-83<\/a> victory, as Germany celebrated in front of a sold out crowd of 11,000 at Arena Riga.<\/p>\n

Dennis Schroder earned the tournament’s TISSOT MVP award to cap an impressive campaign for Germany, including a double-double of 16 points and a Finals record 12 assists against T\u00fcrkiye.<\/p>\n
