Spain might be ranked atop the FIBA leaderboard, but they don’t have a clue about how to stop squads playing out of North America.
Following on the United States of America’s victory over the Spaniards last Sunday, Canada faced the host nation and reigning FIBA World Cup Champs in a game that featured bonus basketball and ended up with the Maples getting another overtime victory beating Spain 85-80 on Thursday night in Granada.
This win marks the third in a row for Canada in their preparation for the upcoming World Cup with just one game left on their schedule and tipping off on Friday at the same place against the Dominican Republic, led by Karl-Anthony Towns.
