U.S. rolls past Canada
Despite a sluggish start, the United States remained undefeated in the FIBA World Championships with an 87-46 win over Canada.
Former Conecticut Sun guard Lindsay Whalen came off the bench to score a game-high 16 points, Angel McCoughtry had 11 points and five steals and former UConn star Swin Cash had 10 points in 12 minutes. Candice Dupree and former UConn standouts Sue Bird and Tina Charles added nine points each. UConn senior Maya Moore had her toughest offensive game to date, missing six of her seven shots and finished with two points in 18 minutes although she did four rebounds, four assists and two steals.
The U.S. is now 4-0 and will face Belarus on Tuesday before wrapping up the round robin portion of the tournament with a highly-anticipated game against Australia on Wednesday.
