Another blow for France, as they lose Vincent Poirier shortly before EuroBasket 2025, according to L'Equipe.

The fears of the French national team's staff were ultimately justified, as Vincent Poirier will not be able to bolster Frederic Fauthoux's team's efforts at EuroBasket 2025, according to the report by Yann Ohnona in L'Equipe.

The Efes center felt discomfort in his knee and underwent tests. It appears the results were unfavorable, and the player is expected to miss the tournament.

As a reminder, Rudy Gobert, Victor Wembanyama, Mathias Lessort, and Moustapha Fall are also out for the French national team this year. Consequently, Mam Jaiteh and Guerschon Yabusele will cover the center position. Unless Fauthoux calls up another tall player in Poirier's place.
