Lakers' Luka Doncic Leads Slovenia to Win over Iceland in EuroBasket 2025 Group Play

After a tough start to the 2025 EuroBasket tournament, Slovenia appears to have found its footing with Luka Doncic leading the way.

The Los Angeles Lakers star led Slovenia to its second straight win on Tuesday, defeating Iceland 87-79 to improve to 2-2 in Group D. The win secures a trip to the Round of 16 for Slovenia.

Doncic was his usual dominant self, finishing with 26 points, seven rebounds, four assists, three steals and a block. He leads all players in the 2025 tournament in points, assists and steals.

Doncic made some clutch plays down the stretch and continued to show off his improved athleticism and defensive effort throughout Tuesday's game.

Slovenia will play one more Group D game against Israel (3-1) on Thursday before moving on to the knockout stage. The team lost to Poland in the quarterfinals of the 2022 EuroBasket tournament, so Doncic and company will be excited for the chance to make a deeper run this year.
