As previously reported by intoronto, our men’s team starts off the FIBA Olympic Qualifying Tournament with a 18-14 victory over Spain. Alex Johnson with the buzzer-beater at the end to clinch it!

 

Women’s team defeats Chile 21-11, Chile played much better than expected especially in the first half of the game.

Canada’s men’s team lost 21-18 to Egypt. Lol. 

 

Alex Johnson was on fire in the end, scoring 3 2s (second one was an and 1) but too little too late as they were already down 18-11.

On paper, looks great as Canada will face Italy (11) in the quarters. Could have faced the 5th ranked Netherlands, or even the 4th ranked home team Hungary. Still need 2 more wins to qualify.
