Team Info
The Latvia national basketball team, known as "Latvijas Basketbola Izlase," is a proud European basketball power based in Riga. Competing in FIBA Europe and the EuroBasket tournament, the team's iconic home is the Arena Riga. Founded in the early 20th century, the team's colors are maroon and white. Latvian basketball has a rich history, but its modern peak era began after the restoration of independence, culminating in a stunning quarterfinal run at EuroBasket 2015 led by star forward Kristaps Porziņģis. That team, featuring the sharp-shooting Jānis Timma and playmaker Jānis Strēlnieks, captured the imagination of the nation. The current core, still often featuring Porziņģis, along with emerging talents like Dāvis Bertāns and Rolands Šmits, continues to be highly competitive, regularly qualifying for major tournaments. The fan culture is exceptional, with the "Sea of Red" creating one of the best atmospheres in international basketball. The Latvian team is a consistent and exciting contender on the European stage.
