Probable Line-ups
Turkey (coach Ergin Ataman): Shane Larkin, Kenan Sipahi, Cedi Osman, Alperen Şengün, Ercan Osman.
Turkey arrive with no major injury concerns, blending NBA talent with experienced EuroLeague guards.
Serbia (coach Svetislav Pešić): Marko Gudurić, Aleksa Avramović, Nikola Jović, Filip Petrušev, Nikola Jokić.
Star guard Bogdan Bogdanović is sidelined with a hamstring injury, with Stefan Jović stepping in as captain.
Form Guide
Turkey (4–0): One of the most efficient teams in the tournament, excelling in shooting percentages, ball movement, and defense. With Şengün anchoring the paint and Larkin orchestrating the offense, they’ve looked balanced and sharp.
Serbia (4–0): The reigning world champions have leaned on Jokić’s all-around brilliance, supported by Gudurić and Jović. Even without Bogdanović, Serbia have cruised through group play with depth and experience.
Prediction
On paper, Serbia remain favorites, powered by Jokić’s dominance and a strong supporting cast. Bookmakers back them as 5.5-point favorites. Yet Turkey’s efficiency, chemistry, and depth suggest this may not follow the script. With Larkin firing and Şengün commanding inside, Turkey could pull off a statement upset in Riga.
Verdict: Serbia’s star power makes them slight favorites, but Turkey’s form makes this one of the most evenly matched—and potentially thrilling—games of the group stage.
