\"KristapsFrom August 27 to September 14, theEurobasket 2025<\/strong> will take place in Cyprus, Finland, Poland and Latvia<\/strong>. Latvia, which should be able to count on Kristaps Porzingis<\/strong>eight years after his last international competition. It was already the euro and he had shot 23.6 points on average to guide his own in 5th place.<\/p>\n

\u00ab I want to play or not for my country, it's a stupid question<\/em> \u00bb he replied<\/a> During a videoconference with European media. “” It did not happen the previous sums because I was injured, but I never refused the selection. If I haven't played, it is because of the injuries. So this summer, I'll be there! Health is the most important thing and everything else will follow.<\/em> \u00bb<\/p>\n

Unless injury, Kristaps Porzingis will therefore strengthen a Latvian selection that caused a sensation during the last World Cup. In 2023, “KP” was not there because of a plantar fasciitis, but the teammates of Davis Bertans and Artors Zagars had risen to 5th place for their first participation in the World Cup.<\/p>\n

A pride for the Celtic “unicorn”, but also a heartbreak, because he had to follow this historic campaign from the bench, after having played two games during the qualifications (for 25.5 points, 14.0 rebounds and 3.0 counters on average). A year later, during the TQO, Latvia then failed to qualify for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, still without its star.<\/p>\n

This summer, lettons will be in pool A, with Serbia, Turkey, the Czech Republic, Portugal and Estonia. The first four of the group will be qualified for the direct elimination phase (at 16 teams).<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
