Dennis Schroder of the Raptors, who was named tournament MVP, scored 28 points, Franz Wagner of the Magic added 19, and Germany defeated Serbia 83-77 in the championship game on Sunday night to complete an undefeated run through the World Cup. Germany won the World Cup for the first time; their previous best finish in the competition was a bronze in Indianapolis in 2002.
Germany won the competition 8-0, becoming them the sixth champion to win the World Cup without losing. After the game, Schroder's teammates temporarily disrupted his post-game press conference by dousing him in water and jumping up and down in joy. For Serbia (6-2), who lost the championship game for the second time in the past three competitions, Aleksa Avramovic scored 21 points, while Bogdan Bogdanovic of the Hawks contributed 17.
