Description Available in:
The Greece national basketball team (Greek: Eθνική Oμάδα Καλαθοσφαίρισης Ελλάδος) is organized and run by the Hellenic Basketball Federation. They were runners-up in the 2006 FIBA World Championship, after beating the United States 101–95 in the tournament's semifinal. They have won EuroBasket twice; in 1987, after beating the Soviet Union 103–101 in the final in Athens and in 2005, after beating Germany with a convincing 78–62 in the final in Belgrade. Greece is currently placed eighth in the FIBA World Rankings.
Greece has also won one silver (1989) and two bronze medals (1949, 2009) at EuroBasket, having closely missed a medal in several occasions in world and continental tournaments (4th place in the 1994 and 1998 FIBA World Championships, 4th place in the 1993, 1995, 1997 and 2007 FIBA EuroBasket), as well as ending up in the fifth place in their last three Olympic appearances (United States 1996, Greece 2004, China 2008). Between 1990 and 1997, following their consecutive successes in EuroBasket, the Greeks participated in all major international tournaments but one, with their lowest ranking being a sixth place in the 1990 FIBA World Championship.
Greece is the only national team in the world to have defeated the United States during Mike Krzyzewski's era (2005–2016), as the latter had an undefeated record both before and after the 2006 World Championship semifinal, all major competitions included.
