Marcus Smart was back in action for Team USA on a minutes restriction however he started in this Saturday Afternoon (Australian time) game against the Boomers. Australia was really physical in the first half as Team USA was slow to get it going as this game would be a lot closer going down to the wire. 13 points for Patty Mills in the final quarter was enough to seal the first win for Australia over team USA ever.
Marcus Smart:
