EuroBasket 2025 schedule, format
The competition commences on Wednesday, Aug. 27, and the group stage will run until Thursday, Sept. 4. During this time, teams will participate in a round robin, facing each team in their assigned group.
The top four teams from each group after the round robin will progress to the elimination round, which starts Saturday, Sept. 6, with the round of 16.

The third-place match and the final are both set for Sunday, Sept. 14.
Who is playing in EuroBasket 2025?
Dončić and Jokić are not the only NBA players participating in EuroBasket 2025. Giannis Antetokounmpo of the Milwaukee Bucks will represent Greece, alongside his brothers Thanasis and Kostas.
Other notable figures at the event include Kristaps Porziņģis, Nikola Vučević, Lauri Markkanen, Bilal Coulibaly, Franz Wagner, Jonas Valančiūnas, Alperen Şengün, and Deni Avdija, according to Morten Stig Jensen of Yahoo Sports.
Notably, France will be without Victor Wembanyama from the San Antonio Spurs and Rudy Gobert from the Minnesota Timberwolves. Wembanyama missed some games last year due to a blood clot and is prioritizing recuperation during this offseason. Gobert, who didn’t have any significant injuries last season, also cited rest as a factor in skipping EuroBasket 2025.
