FIBA under19 tournament, Auckland, New Zealand

The USA have claimed the gold medal at the FIBA U19 World Championship, holding off a second half comeback from Greece to record an 88-80 victory and win the title for the first time since 1991.

The Americans shot 52% on two point shots, 40% from the perimeter and 81% from the free throw line. It would prove decisive as Greece could only convert on 44%, 35% and 71% respectively.

Cheers
