In a previous group match between the Men's Basketball European Championship, Turkey defeated Portugal 95-54 by as many as 41 points. After this game, the Turkish team, which won three consecutive victories, currently has a record of 3 wins and 0 losses, ranking first in the group; while the Portuguese team, which suffered two consecutive losses, has dropped to 1 win and 2 losses, temporarily ranking fifth in the group.

In this game, due to the early loss of suspense of the game, the Turkish starting wing star Cedi Osman did not get much playing time and mobile phone opportunities. Ottoman played 16 minutes and 25 seconds in the game, made 3 of 6 shots and 3 of 4 from outside the three-point line, scored 9 points, 1 rebound and 2 assists, and had 2 turnovers and 2 fouls, with a plus-negative value of +15. Although Ottoman didn't make many shots, he still showed his own characteristics in outside shooting and got some points. Ottoman's performance on the defensive end is quite standard, and there are no too many problems. Overall, Ottoman's performance has not reached the highest level due to various factors, but he has also played his own characteristics and made his own contribution to the team's big victory when playing time is limited. Since the start of the European Championship, Ottoman has averaged 26 minutes of playing time in the first three games, with averaging 16.7 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists and 0.7 steals, 1.3 turnovers and 2.3 fouls, shooting percentage of 55.6%, three-point shooting percentage of 52.9%, free throw percentage of 68.8%, and averaging plus-negative value of +15.7. Ottoman defeated all sides in the previous two games and showed quite good scoring ability. He also won a large number of points in various ways, showing his strong personal ability. Ottoman also took on a lot of responsibilities and was considered the best scorer on the European Championship. This game may be because the situation of the game was too simple, and Ottoman did not need to show his own characteristics, so the team won so easily.

Ottoman was born in April 1995. He is 30 years old, 201cm tall and weighs 104kg. He is the wing player selected by the Cleveland Cavaliers in the 31st pick in the second round in the 2015 NBA Draft. Ottoman's performance in the NBA was also quite good. He was an important rotation player for the Cavaliers for a long time. His performance after joining the San Antonio Spurs was also very stable. He was able to show his own characteristics on the court. However, last summer, Ottoman did not get a contract from an NBA team, and he left the NBA arena. After leaving the NBA, Ottoman's performance in the Greek league giant Panasinaikos last season was also relatively stable. I don’t know if Ottoman can maintain sufficient stability and provide more support to the team in the more important game.
