USA coaching staff cannot be pleased with Sylvia Fowles performance today.
Yes, she is coming back from surgery.
But she missed at least 3 easy shots that were not contested by the likes of Australia’s bigs.
And she had the audacity to attempt a dunk and ended up traveling.
Angel McCoughtry continues to shine on defense.
Miss Maya had a shooting night similar to the 2010 NCAA Title game.
USA needs to figure out how to click in their half court sets and how to make 3s.
