Alright, let me tell you about this little adventure I had today. So, I really wanted to catch the USA vs. South Sudan basketball game. I’m a big fan of the game, and I heard this one was going to be a good one.
I started off by checking when the game was supposed to be played. It turned out it was scheduled for July 31st, which was today! How lucky was I? It was happening in VILLENEUVE-D’ASCQ.
Then, I thought, “How am I going to keep track of the scores?” I figured there must be somewhere online where I can get live updates. After all, I couldn’t watch it live, but I definitely wanted to stay in the loop.
I did a little digging and found out that Team USA was playing in Group C. They had already won their first game against Serbia, with a pretty impressive score of 110-84. And guess what? South Sudan was also doing great, with a win over Puerto Rico, 90-79. It was shaping up to be an exciting match!
The Search Begins
- First, I went online and started looking for a reliable source for live sports scores.
- Then, I typed in “USA vs South Sudan live score” into the search bar, hoping to find something useful.
- Next, I scrolled through a bunch of different websites, trying to figure out which one would give me the most accurate and up-to-date information.
Following the Game
Finally, I settled on one website that looked pretty good. It was updating regularly, and it seemed like it was keeping up with the game pretty well. I kept refreshing the page every few minutes, eager to see the latest scores. It was a bit of a nail-biter, to be honest. Every time I refreshed, the score seemed to change!
I also did a little research about the teams. Found out some cool stuff about LeBron James being tagged in some articles related to this game. And, you know, there was some mention of the 2024 Summer Olympics, which got me even more excited.
The Final Score
In the end, it was a super close game. The final score was 103-86 in favor of Team USA. Man, South Sudan really gave them a run for their money! They even got multiple bites at the rim near the end, which had me on the edge of my seat.
From what I gathered, five American players scored in double figures, which is pretty awesome. Bam Adebayo led with 18 points, and Kevin Durant got 14. LeBron James added 12 points, plus seven rebounds and five assists. On South Sudan’s side, Nuni Omot scored 24 points, which is really impressive. He shot 7-of-11 from the field, no less.
Oh, and I also stumbled upon some information about how the U.S. government is a leading international donor to South Sudan, providing humanitarian assistance and essential services. That was a nice little tidbit to learn.
So, yeah, that was my little adventure for today. It was fun keeping up with the game, even though I couldn’t watch it live. I’m definitely going to keep an eye out for more games in the future. Basketball is such an exciting sport, and following it like this just makes it even better!
