LIMASSOL, Cyprus (AP) — American-born guard Jordan Loyd hit seven 3-pointers and finished with 32 points to help Poland outlast Slovenia and Los Angles Lakers star Luka Doncic 105-95 Thursday in both teams' EuroBasket opener.

Loyd's efforts spoiled a strong effort by Doncic, the slimmed-down NBA star, who finished with 34 points and nine rebounds in the Group D matchup in Katowice, Poland. Poland led 47-46 at the half, then outscored Slovenia 33-23 in the third quarter to take control.

Fellow NBA and Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo had a much easier outing, scoring 31 points in 29 minutes for Greece as it downed Italy 75-66 in Group C in Limassol, Cyprus. Greece shot 62% from the field and hit seven 3s in the victory.
