France vs USA Team Preview
Team France was competitive in that game, but couldn’t pull off the stops late to get the job done. Sandrine Gruda has been the best player for France and in the last game, he finished with 18 points and nine rebounds. The defense was much stronger in the first game of the Olympics, and if they want to win this game it’s going to have to be the defense that steps up to the plate and gets the job done. If the defense is bad, this game is going to get ugly early.
In each of the games USA have gotten out to slow starts but pulled away as the games have gone on. The United States has a stacked roster, but A’ja Wilson has been the best player in each of the first two games. In the last game, Wilson finished with 19 points and 13 rebounds. The United States really needs to try and key on getting out to a fast start in this game, and not letting France stick around. This should be a good tune-up for them heading into the knockout stage.
