An embarrassing episode occurred at the end of the match between France and Slovenia. With just a few seconds left, the French had victory in their grasp and, with possession, Sylvain Francisco greeted Luka Doncic.
😮 Unbelievable. Sylvain Francisco greets Luka Doncic and then scores while the teams are standing still. Was it a mistake by the Slovenian defence or unsportsmanlike behaviour by the French player? 🇫🇷🇸🇮 pic.twitter.com/q4aiyCq8El

The Slovenian defence stopped, the players greeted each other, and Francisco flew to the basket and scored. The opposing players were furious, and tension rose on the court.
For Francisco, it was his 32nd point in an incredible performance, but the gesture was clearly unsportsmanlike. In the end, the skirmishes on the court resulted in technical fouls for Sylvain Francisco and Gregor Hrovat, and the ejection of Nadir Hifi and Martin Krampelj, who entered the court from the bench.
