We are only a couple of days away from the EuroBasket 2017 and the players are there to put everything they have on the court! Even with many stars missing, this is going to be a great ride and Eurohoops presents the biggest stars of the tournament!

Dominant players like Milos Teodosic, Sergio Llull, Nikola Jokic, Nemanja Bjelica, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Ersan İlyasova, Rudy Gobert, Nicolas Batum and Danilo Gallinari will not participate, and therefore will not be able to help their teams contend for a medal.

Especially after deciding to take part in the tournament and help their teams, the fact that Llull, Teodosic and Antetokounmpo will not play due to injury has dissapointed many fans.

Although, there are many key players who can contribute to their teams at a certain level, all 20 players on this list are capable of taking over any game and they are aiming high!

After counting down from 20 to 11, please take your seats and fasten your seat-belts as you are about to see the top 10 players of the upcoming European Championship!

10- Evan Fournier – France

Age: 24
EuroBasket Experience: 1 time
Current Team: Orlando Magic
Last season’s stats: 68 games, 17.2 points, 3.1 rebounds, 3.0 assists

France has many key players missing from the roster, yet, there is someone returning to the team who can fulfill vacancies!

After suffering an injury before the Olympics Qualification games, he was not included in the roster for Rio. Returning to the squad after two years, Evan Fournier will be back but with a huge difference: He was a complementary piece in a team full of stars in 2015 but now he is the absolute man of the team along with one of the greatest French guards ever, Nando De Colo.

After enjoying a bigger role during the 2016-2017 NBA season and averaging 17.2 points, the 24-year-old Frenchman seems to be ready to dominate the tournament.

His performance will be critical for the faith of French squad!
