Check out the live stream of GB Under-20’s final Group B game of the European Championships against Croatia in Eilat at 6:30pm.
Chema Buceta’s side are now 2-2 having lost their previous two games and are most likely to be heading onto the 5th-8th classification round.
At one stage yesterday with Israel struggling against Romania, it looked as though today’s game with Croatia could have been a straight shootout to finish second.
However, with Israel picking up their third win, the only way GB can reach the semi-finals today is if Belarus beat Israel and then GB record a 63-point win against Croatia to come out on top in a 3-way tie.

We have a tiny favour to ask. In 2018 we set out to make Hoopsfix sustainable by building our relationship directly with our readers. Up until now, Hoopsfix has been creating editorials, videos and podcasts to provide sorely missing coverage of the British game and its distinct culture and community.
We have funded Hoopsfix with our freelance work creating basketball media, but sadly that means not only does it fall behind our client’s priorities, but some of those clients are the same organisations we need to report objectively on putting us in a conflicted position.
We want to devote more time to our mission of helping British basketball reach its potential, and produce even more content for the basketball community by making Hoopsfix a sustainable 100% independent business funded directly by our readers through Patreon.
If everyone who enjoys our content chose to support us, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $3 per month, you can support Hoopsfix – and it only takes a minute.
We are tremendously honoured and humbled to have a community of people who value what we do, and we look forward to being at the forefront of the British game as it continues to evolve.
