3×3 basketball: USA women defeat Canada for bronze
The U.S. women’s 3×3 basketball team, which claimed gold in Tokoyo, had to settle for bronze in Paris.
The U.S. defeated Canada 16-13 in the third-place match. The women trailed 12-9 before finishing the game on a 7-4 run. Hailey Van Lith led the team with six points.
It was an ugly, defensive battle. The U.S. didn’t hit any 2s, scoring entirely from 1-point range and the free-throw line.
Germany will play Spain in the gold medal game later today.
