A who's who of NBA's biggest stars, including back-to-back MVP Nikola Jokic, the previous back-to-back MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo, and three-time All-Star Luka Doncic are in action at what promises to be one of the greatest European Basketball Championships ever. Doncic burst onto the scene as a relatively unknown 18-year-old when Slovenia shot to glory five years ago, and you can read on to find out how to watch a 2022 EuroBasket live stream from anywhere.
EUROBASKET LIVE STREAM 2022
Dates: Thursday, September 1 - Sunday, September 18
Spain are the top-ranked team in the competition and it wasn't long ago that they dominated EuroBasket, but they're a very different proposition without Ricky Rubio and the Gasol brothers. Having bested the US on their way to Olympic silver last summer, France look a far more interesting proposition, and Evan Fournier and Rudy Gobert always bring it.
The reigning EuroBasket champions, however, are going to take some beating. Goran Dragic was named MVP in 2017, and Doncic may well follow in his footsteps if the pre-tournament action was anything to go by. Slovenia got the better of Jokic's Serbia, who beat the Greek Freak's Greece in a tantalizing precursor to the European Basketball Championships action.
