Ukraine and The Czar

Tremendous effort by Ukraine to battle from behind and steal a 58-57 win over Belgium in our EuroBasket 2013 opener. We trailed for most of the game, but seized the lead when it counted most. With just seconds remaining in regulation, Pooh Jeter drove into the paint, sank a floater, drew the foul and hit his free throw to give Ukraine a 1-point lead for the win.

Thanks to our press officer Grygorij Palij for sharing some photos from FIBA’s official EuroBasket 2013 site.
