Where to Watch Türkiye vs Bosnia and Herzegovina with Courtside 1891
- → Game to take place at the Turkcell Basketball Development Centre, Istanbul on Thursday, November 27, 2025 at 21:00 Local Time (GMT+3)
- → Form check: Türkiye are fresh off a silver-medal EuroBasket run capped by a narrow final loss to Germany, powered by Alperen Şengün’s breakout tournament. Bosnia & Herzegovina reached the Round of 16 - ending a decades-long drought - behind steady two-way play from Jusuf Nurkić and Edin Atić.
- → Context: First World Cup 2027 Qualifiers window, Group C. These two haven’t met at senior level since EuroBasket 2004: Türkiye hold a 5–0 edge historically, but both arrive with renewed momentum from this summer.
Setting the tone in Istanbul
No Alperen Şengün here, but the November group is still experienced and functional. The frontcourt runs through Sertaç Şanlı, with Cedi Osman and Ömer Yurtseven giving Ergin Ataman size, touch and foul-drawing across the 3–5 spots. On the perimeter, Kenan Sipahi organizes, Şehmus Hazer brings point-of-attack juice, and wings like Onuralp Bitim and Tarık Biberović stretch the floor.
The EuroBasket takeaway that matters now: tempo under control and inside-out offense. Expect Spain actions into short rolls for Şanlı/Yurtseven, plenty of “77” (double drag) to free Osman downhill, and a steady paint-to-corner diet that suits a November roster built more on execution than star shotmaking. At home, the glass and low turnover rate should be their edges.
A Hard Road Start for Bosnia
Also without NBA pillars (and potentially Dzanan Musa), Bosnia lean into continuity. Edin Atić is the connector - defense on one end, secondary creation on the other - while Emir Sulejmanović, Ajdin Penava and Amar Alibegović give Dario Gjergja mobility and activity up front. Ballhandling will rotate between Xavier Castañeda, Sani Čampara and Amar Gegić; add in the length of Adin Vrabac and the wings can switch and scram to keep the paint protected.
Their EuroBasket identity was built on ball movement and collective size. In Istanbul that likely means empty-corner PnR to shift Türkiye’s help, elbows and split cuts for Atić as a passer, and a firm emphasis on defensive rebounding to choke off Türkiye’s second-chance threes.
