Engin Atsür
Turkey fell to Greece, 79-82, yesterday in the semi-finals of the Mediterranean Games in Pescara, Italy. According to the game stats, Engin Atsür was again the leading scorer for Turkey, shooting 5 for 8 from the three and earning a total of 20 of his team’s points; it just wasn’t enough.
The preliminary rounds of Eurobasket 2009 start on 7 September in Warsaw, Poland. Turkey is in Group D and will first go up against Lithuania, a team that has stood in their way a few times before. Looks like Engin will be going back to Turkey to get ready for that.
