USA MEN’S WORLD CUP QUALIFYING NOVEMBER 2022 RESULTS
WASHINGTON, D.C. • NOVEMBER 11-14, 2022
The United States went 1-1 in the fifth round of qualifying for the 2023 FIBA Men’s World Cup, beating Colombia (88-81) after falling to Brazil (94-79) with both games taking place at Washington D.C.’s Entertainment & Sports Arena. In its first game versus Brazil, Langston Galloway led the U.S. in scoring with 14 points while Chris Chiozza contributed seven points and seven assists but it wasn’t enough to overcome a strong Brazil squad. Guard Georginho de Paula also shined for Brazil with 15 first half points. Like Bruno Caboclo, de Paula found his way to the foul stripe. In total, Brazil ended up shooting 20 free throws in the first half and hitting 17 of them. The U.S. played with much more energy in the second half but every time the Americans chipped away at the lead, Brazil answered right back. Fellow Americans Charlie Brown Jr. and Alize Johnson helped chip away at the Brazil lead, each with 10 points on the night. In its second game, the United States led from start to finish, beating the Colombians by seven points. The U.S. saw its shooting percentage improve against Colombia. The Americans frequently found themselves with quality looks from beyond the 3-point arc early in the game, and they took advantage by knocking down those opportunities. As a team, the U.S. started off shooting 5-of-9 from 3-point range as it jumped out to a 19-8 lead midway through the opening quarter. Galloway made his presence known in the fourth quarter. He scored on three consecutive U.S. possessions: a 3-pointer, a drive and spin move to the basket for a layup, and then another 3-pointer. Galloway’s standout play opened a 77-65 lead for the Americans with five minutes left to go in the game. From there, the U.S. was able to close out the final minutes of the game for the win. Galloway led the U.S. in scoring, finishing with 23 points. He was a major factor on the defensive end as well with two blocks and one steal. David Stockton finished with 23 points to go along with three assists.
