After the disclosure of the best five of the competition, composed of Dennis Schroder, Luka Doncic, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Anthony Edwards and Bogdan Bogdanovic, everyone went to have an aperitif because it was time. When we returned (yes, us too), FIBA had announced the second five. Morality? At FIBA, people don’t drink aperitifs much.
Do you know what Arturs Zagars, Simone Fontecchio, Franz Wagner, Jonas Valanciunas and Nikola Milutinov have in common? If you’ve followed the 2023 World Cup at all, you already know that it’s not a medal. Have you read the introduction? So you have FINALLY understood that you have here the list of players making up the second best five of the competition. Their stats? They are just below:
Arturs Zagars (Latvia): 12.4 points, 7.4 assists, an all-time record 17 assists in the fifth-place game Simone Fontecchio (Italy): 18 points, 5.6 rebounds, plus he talks with hands Franz Wagner (Germany): 16.8 points, 6.5 rebounds, 3 assists, a gold medal and a very strong brother Jonas Valanciunas (Lithuania): 14.8 points, 8.8 rebounds and 4 trunks tree swallowed Nikola Milutinov (Serbia): 12.1 points, 8.4 assists and the scalp of Canada in the semi-finals
Five happy men, especially one, we’re not going to lie, and therefore the range of rewards now behind us. And if you’re waiting to know the third best five, know that 1) there won’t be one and 2) there wouldn’t have been any French in the field anyway. Always not.
