France beat Turkey 86-87 after one overtime to advance to FIBA Eurobasket quarterfinals.
But Turkey was up by 2 with 12 seconds less and with two free throws plus possession following a Luwawu-Cabarrot unsportsmanlike foul on Cedi Osman.
Osman failed both free throws and on the next possessions Turkey committed a turnover.
France tied the game with a outback dunk made by Gobert and won at the overtime 87-86.
