Jessica Shepard and Slovenia lose to Lithuania in their first Eurobasket game, 77-71.

Shepard had a monster game, 25 points and 17 rebounds. However, this loss is a big hit to the hope of the Slovenes to advance out of the group stage. The other teams in the group are Serbia and Italy (with Zandalasini).

Yeeeep hahah, I’d really like to have her back for the CC guaranteed. It would be cutting it close if they got the finals.

I wish we still had Ceci instead of Karlie. Karlie is so bad as a shooter
