Halftime: Team USA 41, Canada 33
Team USA is ahead 41-33 at the half. Nothing very shocking. Canada’s big rotation is…not USA’s. Shai Gileous-Alexander is understandably playing off the ball in this setting more than he usually would. Lu Dort is still Lu Dort. SGA has seven points (2-for-7 FG) and four rebounds. Dort has one rebound, two steals, three assists and nine hand checks on Anthony Edwards.

End first quarter: Canada 21, United States 14
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is the only Canadian that’s played every minute of the first. Mark Daigneault’s influence I suppose.
To be fair, this exhibition game has 10-minute quarters instead of the regular 12-minute ones you have in the NBA.
