Team USA cruises past Italy in the FIBA World Cup quarterfinals

In a dominating 100-63 victory, Team USA has beaten Italy in the FIBA World Cup quarterfinals. This one got out of hand early as the Americans were up 24-14 at the end of the first quarter and 46-24 at the half. A 37-20 third quarter put USA up 83-44 going into the fourth and left no doubt on who was advancing.

It was a quiet game for Knicks teammates Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart, who both got the start.
