Get your breakfast ready, it’s basketball time.
The European U20 Championships are starting, with Federico Mussini's Italy team taking on the Czech Republic at 6:45 AM Eastern time. Yankuba Sima’s Spain squad takes on France at 1:45 in what promises to be the most hotly contested game in their group.
The full schedule and a short preview are in our How to Watch post. The Rumble is interested to see how both Sima and Mussini, who came to St. John’s in need of some physical development, have changed in the months since the end of the season. Has a year in the United States elevated their games?
We have the live link to both games here on the Rumble, and will be providing occasional commentary and recaps this weekend (as time permits). Please feel free to comment on how Mussini and Sima play in the comments!
