Reprezentacija SAD-a doživjela poraz nakon 13 godina (VIDEO)

Košarkaši Sjedinjenih Američkih Država doživjeli su prvi poraz nakon 13 godina.

U sklopu priprema za Svjetsko prvenstvo u Kini, u prijateljskom susretu svladali su ih Australci rezultatom 98-94. Prva je to pobjeda Australaca nad Amerikancima u povijesti, a glavni zaslužni za ovaj veliki skalp 'učenik' je američkog izbornika i trenera San Antonio Spursa, Patty Mills.

Mills je ubacio 30 poena te je bio nepremostiva enigma za reprezentativce SAD-a, poglavito u posljednjoj četvrtini u kojoj je zabio 13 poena. Sekundirao mu je Andrew Bogut sa 16 poena i 9 skokova, a Joe Ingles je ubacio poen manje uz dva manje asista. Kod SAD-a, Kemba Walker je ubacio 22 poena, a Harrison Barnes je upisao dva manje.
