Before their final warm-up match against Estonia in Tallinn, Great Britain had a rough preparation ahead of FIBA EuroBasket, losing four consecutive games to France, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Slovenia.<\/p>\n

However, they boosted their positivity by beating the Estonian national team on the road, finally standing at 1-4.<\/p>\n

Great Britain have never made it through the Group Phase in their previous six appearances at FIBA EuroBasket – the last one happening in 2022, where they finished at the bottom in 24th position.<\/p>\n

However, Gabe Olaseni is a dominant force under the basket, bringing experience to a team full of interesting assets. Myles Hesson and Akwasi Yeboah will also be ones to watch for them.<\/p>\n

The British national team will play the Group Phase in Tampere, alongside Germany, Lithuania, Finland, Montenegro, and Sweden in Group B.<\/p>\n

They will begin their campaign against Lithuania on August 27 at 12:30 CET.<\/p>\n
