Germany head coach Alex Mumbru was hospitalized after landing in Finland due to acute abdominal pain

Germany head coach Alex Mumbru was hospitalized after landing in Finland due to acute abdominal pain, and he’s now at risk of missing the entire Group Stage of EuroBasket 2025 in Tampere.

German team doctor Oliver Putz confirmed that Mumbru is recovering well but won’t be on the bench against Sweden and might not return before the end of the group phase. “He’s getting better, but we need to be cautious. He’ll be allowed to watch the games, but not coach them,” said Putz.

Germany opened with a dominant win over Montenegro and will face Sweden on Friday, followed by Lithuania on Saturday.
