Maybe they should have kept DeShields (& Sims) with 5 players being out. Bird, Loyd & Stewart haven't arrived yet(next week?). Delle Donne's not playing until the Worlds & Kelsey Mitchell is back home.

I thought that Gaucher retired, at least from the national team?

Looks like a ton of free throws...
I'm glad the national team plays these tournaments before the World Cup-- gets them used to the international game again...

So A'ja Wilson and BG were the high scorers on the team. Good for them.

I was saying something similar a couple of weeks ago - that this was the most vulnerable-looking USA team since Donovan was in charge - and it was very reasonably pointed out to me that the difference from 2006 could be the competition. There aren't any opponents who look as threatening as the Taylor/Jackson Aussies or that era of the Russians. France are working out how to operate for the first time without Dumerc; even on home soil Spain are going to miss Lyttle; and beyond Cambage this is far from the best group the Opals have ever offered up. It might be enough to save the US from themselves even if they're a bit of a mess and missing 15 players. |

No, I was very specifically thinking of Kim Gaucher. She announced her retirement from the National Team after Rio; according to the article posted by @threadkiller1201, she apparently changed her mind.
