Team Canada survived a Brunoesque nightmare and turned things around against old friend Sergio Scariolo and the Spanish National Team, advancing to the quarter-finals. The game was a thriller, and while coach Jordi Fernandez’s team was much more composed down the stretch, the team still played with several holes and played catch-up for most of the game.
Meanwhile, Bruno Caboclo and Brazil lost to Latvia, thus ending their dreams of moving on to the next round. Still, looking at his overall performance in this tournament, I can’t help but think of when Caboclo first showed flashes of what his real position should be.
