Team USA crushes Jordan to sweep through World Cup pool play
MANILA, Philippines -- Team USA's Anthony Edwards and Jordan's Rondae Hollis-Jefferson added some spice to a what otherwise would have been a low-drama game, staging an American playground-style duel that isn't normally seen at the FIBA World Cup.
The two shooting guards went back-and-forth racking up points and giving the crowd at Mall of Asia Arena something to pay attention to besides the score as Team USA won 110-62 on Wednesday to finish pool play 3-0.
The U.S. moves on to the World Cup's second round and will play Montenegro, which went 2-1 to advance out of its group, on Friday.
