Track The Pack | Bennett Has Solid Start For Canada

Anthony Bennett is playing for Team Canada this summer as it competes in the Mexico 2015 FIBA Americas Championship. He’s already got two double-doubles, helping Canada take the Tuto Marchand Cup.

What is the Tuto Marchand Cup you ask? We are glad you asked.

It’s an international warm-up tournament for the FIBA Americas. The five teams that compete in the Cup are Canada, Puerto Rico, Brazil, Dominican Republic and Argentina.

Here’s how the 2013 No. 1 pick performed in the first four games:

Canada 85, Argentina 80

In this close win over Argentina, Bennett was big, finishing with a 10-point, 13-rebound double-double.
