Andres Nocioni replaced Manu Ginobili as the team in scoring with 18 points.

In the same group, Lithuania beat Russia, which if not curtailed Espabila can see their hopes of qualifying as Australia beat Iran, as planned, 106-68. Australia and Russia are fighting now tied for fourth place a victory. Lithuania top the group with 3-0 and were followed by Argentina and Croatia. You must pay attention to the third and fourth position of this group because there will rival Spain in the quarterfinals.
