Luka, Slovenia dealt their first loss at EuroBasket

The breezy stroll Luka Donu010diu0107 was taking through the EuroBasket tournament turned into an arduous trek on Sunday.

Having won their first two games convincingly, the Slovenians ran into a hot-shooting opponent and a cold game of their own from 3-point range and suffered their first defeat in EuroBasket in seven years.

Bosnia and Herzegovina rode the remarkable 3-point shooting of John Roberson (a Plano High School and Texas Tech product) to score a 97-93 upset of Donu010diu0107 and Slovenia.

It dropped Slovenia to 2-1 in Group B play – with two very challenging games upcoming before the knockout rounds begin.
