South Sudan 90-79 Puerto Rico
Although they lost to the Dream Team by one point in the warm-up game, the South Sudan men's basketball team, which obviously finished the high-end game, began to increase their confidence, and today they are not afraid of Puerto Rico, a South American powerhouse that has rarely played against them.
In the first half, through height, arm span and running and jumping talent, he attacked the inside line and the Puerto Rico men's basketball team, which mainly played on the outside.
In the second half, taking advantage of the "old six" Alvarado's injury, the offensive end suddenly lost power, and shot through the defense of the Puerto Rico men's basketball team on the outside;
In the third quarter, the South Sudan men's basketball team once blasted out 23-15 to directly overtake the score, paving the way for the reversal.
The Puerto Rico men's basketball team fell ill again in the final quarter, and after a scoring drought of more than five minutes, the South Sudan men's basketball team took the lead and finally won the victory.
The South Sudan men's basketball team is certainly not as delicate as the Puerto Rico men's basketball team in terms of technical competition, but they have strong physical talents to make up for it;
The rebounds were ruthlessly crushed by 49-32, and the second offensive score was 24-2. The rush of rebounds in the front court and the grasp of the second offensive opportunity are too good, which is why the Puerto Rico men's basketball team has not been able to shake them off in the score, and even the advantage has been gradually eroded until the rout.
The brothers who led the South Sudan men's basketball team to a big victory are still familiar with the major "celebrities"~
Zhejiang Chouzhou famous Jones 19 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists, Ningbo Dingwu famous Omote 12 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists, Shandong high-speed famous Shayok 15 points and 3 boards, Lakers famous Gabriel 6 points, 9 rebounds and 2 hats...
In fact, they also "let" a Fujian SBS celebrity Thorne Meck
This guy (Australian-South Sudan dual nationality) will not be able to represent South Sudan at the Olympics this year because the Australia Basketball Association failed to issue him a clarification letter in time.

Spain 90-89 China Women's Basketball
An extremely painful defeat.
The girls of the women's basketball team suppressed the Spain women's basketball team almost the entire time in the score, but they were overtaken by the opponent who sucked a whole wake at the last minute and reached the finish line...
The turning point of the game came in the last 22 seconds of the final quarter, that is, when the Chinese women's basketball team was still leading by 5 points, and the tenacious Spain women's basketball team first made Wang Siyu a 2+1 through a fast-break layup;
Yao Ming couldn't sit still....
But the rising Spain women's basketball team seized the opportunity to create 3+0 on Yang Liwei, almost dragging the suspense of victory and defeat into overtime in a desperate way!
What makes people's scalps tingle even more is the next overtime, and the Chinese women's basketball team trailed by 3 points in the last 6.6s;
Wang Siyu gave up a three-point tie at the top of the arc!? passed to Li Yueru, who went down after blocking and dismantling, and made a layup to chase the remaining 1 point difference;
But there were only 4.2 seconds left in the game, but after the Spain women's basketball team served the ball, all the women's basketball team except Yang Liwei suddenly collectively lost power and did not step forward to force the foul to stop the table!?
Watch your opponent run out of time and win...
Abstract, too abstract.
Speaking of not fouling in overtime, coach Zheng Wei explained it this way:
Hey, putting aside the last offense and defense, if the Chinese women's basketball team's full-court mistakes can be pressed, will it not play so closely, and there will be no follow-up outrageous plots (as many as 23 mistakes in the women's basketball team rushed to the hot search, and only 8 in the Spain women's basketball team)???
The only one who can bring comfort to Chinese fans is Li Yueru.
She became the brightest "star" in the "dark night", playing a unique offensive and defensive performance, showing the level that the world's top center should have-
Played 33 minutes, 9 of 16, 12 of 13 free throws, 31 points, 15 rebounds (10 frontcourt boards), 1 assist and 1 block.
The inside line turned over the river and the sea and played 2+1 again and again, and hit the big heart three points at the time of chasing points in overtime, and the internal and external blossoms repeatedly resolved the crisis for the Chinese women's basketball team. However, the teammates couldn't grasp the details and missed the victory.
I am very happy to witness Li Yueru's gorgeous transformation, but at the same time, I also hope that the girls of the women's basketball team will quickly adjust their mentality and work hard to play well in the group stage later. Basketball is never a one-man game.
