Ainars Bagatskis's team has begun the tournament with three wins in a row. The Ukrainians defeated Great Britain (90-61), Estonia (74-73), and Italy (84-73), earning a playoff berth. The team could skip the remaining two group-stage games. And so it happened - after 3-0 Ukrainians lost to Greece (79-99) and Croatia (85-90), sacrificing these games for the sake of preparation for the round of 16.
At the end of the group, it is worth noting Ukraine's offense. Only Greece was better in Division C at 82.4 per game.
Poland also won three out of five matches
As well as the Ukraine national team, the Poles finished the group stage with the result 3-2. Igor Milicic's team defeated the Czech Republic (99-84), Israel (85-76) and Netherlands (75-69), and lost to Finland (59-89) and Serbia (69-96). After a blowout against Serbia in the last round, Poland finished the group stage with a negative goal difference of 387-414.
