Summary
Team USA delivered the bounce-back performance it needed, routing Czechia 105-64 to finish FIBA Women’s World Cup Group Play 3-0. The USA women looked far sharper from the start, assisting on 10 of their 11 first-quarter field goals. By halftime, they had already scored more points than they did in the entire win over Italy — while committing just two turnovers. Yes, the level of opponent wasn't equal to Italy -- but USA's actions, ball movement, and efficiency was much improved. Six players scored in double figures, everyone played at least 14 minutes and all 12 players scored. Breanna Stewart was named Player of the Game after finishing with 19 points, seven rebounds and six assists, while Caitlin Clark added nine points and a game-high seven assists. Team USA advances to Thursday’s quarterfinals, where it will face Hungary or Japan. ----- Follow Scott on Twitter and Instagram , and read his work on fieldhousefiles.com .
