Los Angeles Lakers star Luka Donu010diu0107 had 42 points and 10 rebounds as Slovenia held off a fourth-quarter surge from Italy to win 84-77 at the EuroBasket tournament Sunday and set up a quarterfinal match against World Cup winner Germany.

Slovenia led 29-11 at the end of the first quarter, and Donu010diu0107 reached 30 points by halftime -- the fourth time this tournament that he has scored at least 30 points in a game.

But Italy staged a stunning comeback and moved within one point of Slovenia with just under two minutes left.
