Match Preview
Even though they had certain problems in the paint, South Korea contained Nigeria's offense to take a surprising win yesterday. Can they cause another upset against heavy favorites France?
France Dominating From the Start
France had a furious start to the World Cup 2026 yesterday, leading 61-20 at half-time against Hungary and then finishing the job later with a 99-53 victory.
Their two-point shot selection was fantastic, landing 20 out of 32 attempts, while forcing 22 turnovers. Dominique Malonga was named player of the match, finishing with 17 points and 10 rebounds.
France were aiming for a medal in the previous World Championship in Australia four years ago, but were stopped in the quarterfinals by China 85-71.
Their most recent accomplishments were the silver medal at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games and bronze medal in Tokyo in 2020.
South Korea Aiming for Another Upset
South Korea Women were tagged as massive underdogs in yesterday's clash against Nigeria, but earned a convincing 99-81 victory and made a huge step towards the playoffs.
Their three-point shooting made the difference here, landing 14 out of 28 attempts, while defensively they forced 23 turnovers. Park Ji-Hyun was unstoppable on the floor, scoring 27 points with 6/10 three-point shooting.
South Korea had a disappointing run at the FIBA Basketball World Championship 2022, finishing in 10th place after winning just one out of five games in the group stages (beat Bosnia & Herzegovina 99-66).
This is their 17th consecutive appearance at the World Cup.
