Hedo Turkoglu scored 20 points (including 4-of-7 from downtown) to lead the Turkish national team past France on Sunday.
The event is being held in Turkey, and the home court advantage could propel Hedo and co. into the medal rounds. They'll soon face stiffer competition than France, however, and they're bound to cool off against better defenses (overall, the Turkish team made 72% of their 2-pointers and 47% of their 3-pointers.).
