With the win Canada moved to 2-0 in the OQT and now are setup for a cross pool showdown in the semi-finals.
It wouldn't be an international tournament for Canada without a scare against an under-scouted, uber athletic team, would it?
The fate of the game came down to the last possession, as Senegal guard Clevin Hannah missed what would've been a game tying three at the final buzzer.
Cory Joseph was Canada's top scorer with 13 points, Melvin Ejim added 11 and eight rebounds while Tyler Ennis chipped in 12 points of his own.
