U19 FIBA World Cup: USWNT Crushes China, Extends Massive Win Streak

Quarterfinals Loom Large

Next up for Team USA is a high-stakes quarterfinal clash against the winner of the France vs. Czech Republic match. With their elite defense, explosive scoring, and overwhelming depth, the Americans are locked in and ready for the next challenge in their march toward gold.

Defense Sets the Tone

After a competitive opening stretch that had the U.S. clinging to a 12-10 lead midway through the first quarter, the clamps came down. The Americans forced 26 turnovers, converted them into 38 points, swiped 20 steals, and rejected seven shots in a full-court defensive display. China’s 19-for-64 shooting effort (29.7%) reflects how disruptive the U.S. defense has been—they still haven’t allowed a 20-point quarter all tournament.

Unstoppable Offensive Rhythm

It wasn’t just the defense that dazzled. USA’s offense poured in 122 points, hitting the 100-point mark for the third time in four games. Through four contests, the Americans are averaging 112.3 points, shooting 53.8% from the field, and pulling in a staggering 58.3 rebounds per game. They're also dishing 27.8 assists, dropping 55.0 points off the bench, and running the floor for 35.0 fast break points per outing.

Jazzy 1st-Half Spark

Jazzy Davidson lit up China in the second quarter, pouring in 13 of her 18 points as the U.S. outscored their opponent 40-19 in the frame. She was everywhere in limited minutes—7-of-10 shooting, 2-of-3 from deep, and a personal-best nine rebounds in just under 16 minutes of action. A complete two-way impact.

Betts Brings the Heat Again

Sienna Betts delivered another monster stat line with 21 points on 10-of-17 shooting and 10 boards, notching her third straight double-double. Her six offensive rebounds helped lead the team to 28 second-chance points off 24 offensive boards—proof of the dominance on the interior.
