Overview

• Dennis Schröder led Germany with 26 points and Franz Wagner added 19 in the penultimate pre-tournament test.
• Germany started Schröder, Andreas Obst, Wagner, Johannes Voigtmann and Daniel Theis, a group that could mirror the Tampere opener, with Theis making just his second prep appearance after a knock.
• The result marked Germany’s fourth win in five warm-ups following last weekend’s 81:91 Supercup final loss to Serbia.
• Two players still must be trimmed from the 14-man group after teenager Christian Anderson was cut earlier, with AFP naming Nelson Weidemann, Leon Kratzer and the injured David Krämer as candidates.
• The teams meet again Saturday in Cologne at 19:00, with MagentaSport carrying the game, before Germany opens EuroBasket on Aug. 27 against Montenegro in Tampere.
