USA Basketball vs. Nigeria: Score, Highlights and Reaction from 2016 Showcase

In their final exhibition game ahead of the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Team USA picked up a 110-66 victory over Nigeria on Monday night inside Houston's Toyota Center.

Toronto Raptors guard DeMar DeRozan had a nice night, scoring 13 points on 5-of-7 shooting and adding five assists. NBA writer Sam Vecenie liked what he saw from DeRozan and hopes he'll carry it over to the 2016-17 season:

Would be interesting if this Team USA experience led to a slightly more aggressive DeMar DeRozan in terms of attacking the basket.
