    Well, I see that we won in OT from the Canada Basketball twitter feed, but I can't find a box score.

      • Thanks. Looks like Olynyk had a huge game. 18 pts, 8 reb, 3 ast, 1 stl, 1 blk.

        • Man I like how they do those box scores and how the highest stat is in red!

          Good to see they pulled that out. Third of a back to back to back tomorrow!

              But he's quite the opposite. Plays for Ottawa and is hands down the best youngster playing in Canada right now (I don't know if that says much)

                  Ottawa!! Ottawa!!! He plays for Carleton. Saying that a Carleton player plays for Ottawa is like saying that a Buckeye plays for OU. More importantly, Scrubb is the only player in the CIS on the radar of NBA scouts (don't be surprised if he gets a number of summer league invites when he graduates).

                  • Canada has a 16 point lead with 6 minutes left in the game against Georgia. It must be tough for Bachynski and Nicholson to guard a load like Zaza in the post.

                    Box score can be found here: http://live.baskethotel.com/kzs/?&lang=1

                          • Dante Exum should get a lot of minutes for Australia in the World Cup of Basketball next month.

                            The Utah Jazz see the tournament as a great opportunity for their first round pick.

                            "We’ve had a lot of players ... that have used the national team to help develop their game as young players," Dennis Lindsey said. "We think this is ideal for Dante, who hasn’t had a lot of experience playing against men and certainly men that are much older and much more experienced. We think the national team during the early portion of his career will be very critical to his development."

                            Lindsey added, "The Australian Basketball Federation is excellent, very well coached. We’re really looking forward to him learning. We see this as a real win."


                            to bad Canadian's drafed this year didn't understand what Jazz understand .

                              My understanding is that because Exum and Australia are playing in the World Cup, the NBA picks up the tab for insurance on NBA contracts of NBA players taking part in FIBA sanctioned events. The Canadian team, which did not qualify for the World Cup, is on a tour of Europe "friendlies" right now and Canada Basketball has to provide its' own insurance for the players for this non sanctioned tour. The word was that Tristan Thompson's insurance was too expensive for Basketball Canada this summer and perhaps Wiggins, Bennett, Stauskas and Ennis were not part of this current tour because of the financial burden of the insurance.
