Thirty years after winning the European Championships in Munich and one year after winning bronze at the European Championships at home, the German Basketball Federation (DBB) squad wrote history, surpassing the previous best World Cup result from the Dirk Nowitzki era. With the tournament MVP in its ranks, the DBB team won bronze in Indianapolis (USA) in 2002.

28 Schröder points in the final

It is the second World Cup medal and the fifth overall. In 1993, Germany became European champion under Pesic, silver at the European Championships in 2005 and bronze in 2022. The team of national coach Gordon Herbert had already qualified for the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris by reaching the semi-finals.

The best thrower at the final in the Mall of Asia Arena in front of 12,022 spectators was Schröder (28 points). Franz Wagner (19) and Johannes Voigtmann (12) also scored in double figures. (AFP)
