What happened

Nyara Sabally delivered a 16-point, 12-rebound performance as Germany advanced to the FIBA Women's Basketball World Cup semifinals. She also added two assists in the deciding win, giving Germany a complete contribution from one of the central players in its tournament run.

Sabally's 16-12 line supplied the production Germany needed to move through the decisive game and secure a place in the final four. Her work on the glass, scoring and playmaking shaped the result without requiring a separate statistical headline to define her impact.

Why it matters

The result puts Germany among the final four teams at the FIBA Women's Basketball World Cup. A semifinal berth marks the latest step in a World Cup run anchored by Nyara Sabally, whose role has continued to grow through the tournament.

Germany's advance also keeps its title path open. The remaining stage will be defined by the semifinal matchup, but the team's place in the tournament's final four is now established.

By the numbers

Sabally is averaging 17 points and 11 rebounds through four tournament games. Her latest performance finished below that scoring average but exceeded her rebounding average, producing a balanced line at a critical point in Germany's campaign.

Across those four games, the averages underline the consistency of her role. The 16 points and 12 rebounds against the deciding opponent added another strong all-around showing to the numbers that have carried her through the World Cup.

What to watch next

Germany's semifinal matchup and tipoff are next. The opponent and game time were not specified in the available information, leaving the next formal details of Germany's schedule still to come.

Until then, Sabally's production remains the clearest statistical marker of Germany's run. Her scoring, rebounding and two-assist contribution have positioned her as a central figure as the tournament moves into its final four.
