00:09Link in the description.
00:31He has it.
00:32Outlet feed.
00:33Devin Booker with the adjustment.
00:36You can't give up.
00:37Miss fires.
00:38And Beat keeps it alive.
00:39Nice find.
00:40It is Holley.
00:41Hiding in with the left hand.
00:42About to give to...
00:44Gabriel.
00:45A double comes from Omont.
00:47James cuts.
00:48James flips.
00:49Off target.
00:50Tipped alive.
00:51And knocked out from underneath the rim.
00:54It's basket interference and a point for the United States.
00:57Carlique Jones, who's been a 20 point per game guy at the international level.
01:04Omont pulls up over the small of Holliday and gets South Sudan on the board.
01:08Omont, a quick trigger from Cole.
01:10And a long rebound to Holliday.
01:12A quick outlet feed for LeBron.
01:14Too easy.
01:17Tough shots.
01:18We're seeing a lot of quick movement up the floor off of misses thus far.
01:23Just one for six South Sudan.
01:26Booker floats it.
01:27And Beat taps it in.
01:28How about that?
01:29He needs a little help.
01:31And Joel bodies up.
01:33Gabriel knocks down LeBron.
01:35And they're going to get some kind of opt-in to play for the United States and wants that role.
01:38Yeah, pretty impressive.
01:39Of course, Davis is a guy that lets them play in a different...
01:42They can play smaller.
01:43And obviously the impact defensively.
01:46Countries.
01:47Incredible journeys with family.
01:49As young, young children.
01:51As infants.
01:52Sometimes as babies.
01:53Many of these players immigrated to Australia.
01:56There's a three.
01:57Another layup.
01:58That is just some sad stories.
02:00And what these guys were able to do with their lives.
02:03Noel Dank, for example.
02:05Sacrificing, contributing.
02:07How about him?
02:08Doesn't need much space, does he?
02:09He does exceptionally well.
02:10And he's got a three.
02:12Again, lifting Joel.
02:15Good positioning by Cole.
02:17And it's off to Omont.
02:19As well, here is Carlie Jones.
02:21You mentioned it, trying to get him into the paint.
02:23This is a triple off the side of the backboard for Dang.
02:27Good effort by Dang.
02:29Majuk Dang.
02:30After Dang the other way.
02:32They've done a great job balancing the floor of the USA.
02:34And as I say that, they don't shut it down.
02:37That guy at Hornet 4.
02:39Davis knocked it away momentarily.
02:41Good save by Monologues.
02:42Taken away by Davis.
02:44Outlet feed.
02:45Out of control with the bam.
02:47Big time.
02:48So good rate going.
02:51Tough take.
02:52A left-handed floater goes down for him.
02:54He can make the three, so you've got to tug, get tight on him.
03:01McCoy with the kick out.
03:02Another three.
03:03This is the former Iowa Hawkeye.
03:05Two points.
03:08He's going up by 12 at the three-point line.
03:10Anthony Edwards, the defense, and the lay-in.
03:12He's a ragged guy.
03:14You see his aggressiveness against McCoy.
03:17Nice challenge.
03:19Forcing Dang to drive, and Dang is able to bank it home.
03:22Average of about 23 to 26 in the first two contests.
03:26They've kept Jones out of the lane.
03:28It's one of the few times he's gotten the touch.
03:30Only two touches in the paint, and then he's able to kick it out,
03:33and Shayok hits his second three.
03:35Jones, it's a switch with the bigger out of Bayou.
03:39The pull-up shot.
03:40Our league champ.
03:42Sticking it.
03:43To the NBA G League, in fact, the top scorer in the G League
03:47and an MVP a couple of years ago.
03:49Edwards, the snap.
03:50How about that?
03:51Taking its largest lead at seven.
03:53Now back down to five.
03:55They're playing with some confidence.
03:57Good ball movement.
03:58And a deep one from Omot.
04:00Oh, my.
04:02A little while.
04:03This is a team that has not been given or handed anything.
04:07Carly Jones got it to go.
04:09And over Davis as well.
04:11Of South Sudanese that are raised and go to high school in Australia.
04:16A scrape and a look at this.
04:18Carly Jones finding Shayok who had to adjust as he stumbled a little bit
04:22in the second quarter for South Sudan.
04:24Yeah, that brings a lot of energy.
04:26Jones gets to the rim.
04:27And one for Carly Jones who is feeling himself right now.
04:32He had double-doubles, three of them in the World Cup too.
04:36Huge score, huge assist guy.
04:38Embiid finally snaps the puck.
04:42That's why Davis and Adebayo are such keys off the bench.
04:45There is this young.
04:48I think it's the over help.
04:50Okay.
04:51Probably both.
04:54Curry had the defense on Jones who finds Dang on a nifty Carly Jones.
05:00Such a cog for the South Sudanese team.
05:02Look at the open middle, so you've got to stay at home on the show.
05:05Tough shot.
05:06Wow.
05:07Shayok puts it down while Booker was hassling him defensively.
05:11Well, they are playing confidently.
05:14Angry drive by Shayok.
05:16A message.
05:17Trying to step it up a little bit.
05:19Booker on defense running with Holiday.
05:22And True puts it home.
05:24More instrumental really in getting the lead.
05:27Trying to get into the paint.
05:29He does against Davis.
05:30That's what they do.
05:31Kicked out.
05:32And Shayok.
05:33And get a look.
05:34Three-point shooting for South Sudan has been a major factor.
05:38Good ball movement and an angry effort.
05:42Davis.
05:44And James trying to stick with Jones.
05:46And Carly Jones is not afraid of anybody.
05:50So, the challenge and the depth.
05:52Impressive for Dang and Ivy and company.
05:56A minute left in the second.
05:58It's Thor separating from Davis.
06:02JT Thor has done good stuff off the bench.
06:04Six points for the former Auburn Tiger.
06:09James.
06:10James.
06:11Ron.
06:12Aggressive.
06:13Wow.
06:14How about that?
06:15How did he save?
06:20And here is Edwards.
06:22Takes the jumper.
06:24Will not go.
06:25The tap back by Adebayo.
06:26Into the hands of Davis.
06:27And he got it home.
06:31Tatum.
06:32On home ice.
06:33Stride drive.
06:34In one.
06:37A college game.
06:38Two-time All-American at the Division II level
06:40before going to Colorado.
06:42Defense by Tatum.
06:43Yeah, good hands.
06:44Shayok, though, has been hot.
06:46Home run.
06:47Home run.
06:48Home run.
06:49Played a high number of games.
06:52Inside off the inbound.
06:54It's good for Cole.
06:55Excellent.
06:56Jones continues to distribute.
06:58Seven assists for the G League MVP.
07:02White to a wide open Edwards.
07:04Will not miss it that time.
07:06Finally, the U.S. gets a three.
07:08Jack three.
07:11Into Davis.
07:12Against Gabriel.
07:13The shifty maneuvering of the deuce.
07:15Took advantage of size.
07:18Much more of a challenge on shots.
07:21Automatic switching.
07:24Well, that's the other thing with this lineup,
07:25a little bit more defensive versatility.
07:27Malouach, the future Blue Devil, knocks down a three.
07:31Lost it on the crossover attempt.
07:35Another U.S. turnover.
07:37And it leads to a Shayok triple, his fourth of the game.
07:41Jones looking for the deuce.
07:44And somehow got his own risk against James.
07:48Shayok looking for another triple.
07:52How about him spotting up points today.
07:55Look out, they're jamming it up.
07:57Forcing the deep shot.
07:59Taking advantage of LeBron.
08:01Stumbles to get it to Booker.
08:03And Devin Booker trying to get going,
08:04running into two defenders.
08:07Nice call.
08:08Back to the facility.
08:10Holliday weren't on the count, but great.
08:12For LeBron James.
08:13Lead back down to six.
08:15It is four.
08:16Drawing the contact on that beat and one.
08:19Oh, you got to know it's his.
08:23It's James.
08:25Majuk Deng guarding.
08:27Curry moving away from the ball to get the three.
08:30He circled the four.
08:31Jackson Poole working against Holliday,
08:33who knocked it free and saved it to James.
08:35What a play by Drew Holliday.
08:37James with the three and a foul.
08:40A flinch from LeBron James to try to reignite the United States.
08:46Looking for Curry.
08:48Flipped back to James.
08:51Got in the air, found Holliday behind the back,
08:53fires the jumper and connects.
08:56You can see in check three, the U.S. on its longest run of the game.
08:59They've scored the last eight.
09:00Looking for more.
09:01It's Booker.
09:03He ties the game at 76 on an 11-0 United States run.
09:07Led since 16-15 at the 346 mark of the opening quarter.
09:12Shayok got his hands on it.
09:13Curry runs it down.
09:15A very deep pass.
09:17Wow.
09:19Four-year United States lead.
09:21Not many have the range.
09:22It's LeBron.
09:23Up to the feed.
09:25Got it back and scored it to beat the buzzer.
09:28And the United States, after a 44-point first half,
09:32puts up 37 in the third to regain the advantage.
09:37A switch on multiple players.
09:40Now he goes right down against the smaller Jones.
09:43Good read.
09:44Who has nine rebounds, nine assists, nine points.
09:48Jock, a triple try.
09:50His second of the night.
09:51First.
09:53As much as we praised South Sudan in the first half,
09:56Carly Jones should be a name all of you remember.
09:58And B knocks it down.
10:00Jones in South Sudan.
10:01He may get his spot in the league the way he's playing.
10:04It is Gabriel.
10:06The wing is open in London.
10:09Big time kiss.
10:14Most experienced NBA player for South Sudan.
10:17And his former teammate with the Lakers, LeBron James, hits.
10:21LeBron trying to stand up LeBron James.
10:26James taking on the challenge.
10:38And looking for it here.
10:39There it is.
10:40A triple-double for Carly Jones.
10:44This is a very impressive showing for South Sudan regardless of the result.
10:49And Peter Jock knocking down his third field goal.
10:56It is Jones.
10:57Bodying his way to the rim against Anthony Edwards.
11:00Working on Derrick White here.
11:06How about the hesitation?
11:09It's Tatum.
11:11On the drive.
11:12Switching the hand to the left.
11:14How good was that?
11:16Come on, mom, watch.
11:18Jones against Tatum.
11:22In traffic.
11:24Doesn't matter.
11:25How about this, kid?
11:26Good foul for South Sudan.
11:28Off the inbound, it's Tatum from his Celtic teammate, Derrick White.
11:34Bam's really handling the ball well.
11:36Nice cut.
11:37Selfish.
11:39Not selfish.
11:40Bam to a punt.
11:41White into the body of Wendon Gabriel.
11:44Good team.
11:46Shayok in transition.
11:48His sixth triple of the game.
11:50Binds Jones.
11:51Binds Jones, extra feed.
11:53JT, for a big three, will go.
11:55Shayok, the offensive rebound.
11:57He'll float it up and knock it down.
11:59It's a two-point game.
12:01Loose ball to Thor.
12:03Two to tie, three for the lead.
12:06Who wants to be a hero?
12:08It's Thor for the lead.
12:11How about this team?
12:14The current Charlotte Hornets.
12:17Cole all over Steph.
12:20LeBron drives for the lead.
12:22He puts it in.
12:25With eight seconds remaining.
12:27White defending it.
12:29Jones trying to get free.
12:31Into Carli Jones.
12:33Six seconds left.
12:34Carli Jones on the drive for the lead.
12:37The big throw by Gabriel.
12:39A second attempt now.
12:40Davis comes out with it.
12:42And that is it.
12:43The United States holds on for a win.
12:47And South Sudan mere moments away
12:51from what would have been the biggest win
12:54in their country's history,
12:57perhaps in any sporting event.
13:00The United States holds on for a one-point victory.
