Form guide for USA vs Spain

USMBT:

They don’t have all the heavy hitters from the NBA, but they have a good 12-man squad that can bring the trophy back home. Brunson and Edwards headline this team, and they have the talent to make a solid squad. Steve Kerr and Erik Spoelstra will be taking the team’s reins after Gregg Popovich retired from international basketball.

So far, the USMBT’s preparations for the World Cup have seen them beat Puerto Rico 117-74, before registering a 92-62 win over Slovenia.

Spain:

The Spaniards are not the team of 2008. But they do have a solid squad that can mount a good tournament. Sergio Scariolo will be managing the Europeans, an NBA veteran who knows how to play these games. Juancho Hernangómez and Willy Hernangómez headline this team, two very good players that also know how to play against NBA stars.

Spain’s two World Cup warm-ups up to now have yielded an 87-57 victory over Venezuela, and a 99-79 win over Slovenia.
