Men's coach Julio Lamas left his post after the Tokyo Olympics, and Tom Hovasse, who led the Japan women to a silver medal, became the successor...
The United States jumped out to an 18-5 lead in the first quarter and collected its seventh consecutive gold in the event.
Dynamic point guard Rui Machida continued her brilliant play with an Olympic women’s single-game record of 18 assists.
Machida plays a starring role in Japan’s one-sided victory over Nigeria, helping the host nation book a spot in the quarterfinals.
