Franz Wagner's Star RISES in EuroBasket | Goga Bitadze FINDS his balance in huge win

Franz Wagner continues to dominate at EuroBasket as he poured in another huge game to push Germany to a 2-0 record.

Wagner is not doing anything to stand out aside from racking up points. He is defining stardom in his own way, not with crazy one-on-one moves, but with a steady barrage to the rim and finishes at the basket. Wagner is finding his way to lead Germany to the next stage of EuroBasket.

Goga Bitadze is also finding his way. He came up big with eight points in the fourth quarter to help Georgia finalize an upset over Spain in their opener. Bitadze is hunting for consistency, and he found it in the opening game.
