The Italy Under 20 team is the European champion. In Greece, coach Rossi's Azzurri beat Lithuania in the final: 83-66 after a game they conducted with great authority right from the first quarter .
Sassari's Stefano Trucchetti played a true point guard : on a night where his shots weren't going in, he led the team very well, as evidenced by his 4 assists and 3 steals, but above all his +21 plus/minus.
Francesco Ferrari was Italy's top scorer with 26 points, followed by Elisee Assui who nearly achieved a double-double with 17 points and 9 rebounds.
