Warriors Stephen Curry Struggles for Team USA in Exhibition Against Australia

The Summer Olympics are starting soon and the USA’s men’s basketball team has high hopes. Team USA Basketball went to Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates to continue playing exhibition games. After defeating Canada 86-72 on July 10, the United States defeated Australia 98-92 in the second game of their pre-Olympics showcase on July 15. Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry struggled in the matchup.

In the game against Canada, Curry scored 12 points. He shot three for six from deep as well. However, against Australia, he struggled. Curry scored just three points and shot one for six in 21 minutes. Despite the win, Team USA experienced some struggles they can learn from.

“We gave up a ton of points at the basket back cuts, offensive boards, and so the game shifted and it’s a good lesson for us,” Team USA coach Steve Kerr said, according to ESPN’s Brian Windhorst. “Better to learn that lesson now than later. And this will be a good tape for us to watch.”

Team USA will play one more game in Abu Dhabi before going to London to play their final two exhibition games. They will face off against Serbia on July 28 at the start of the group stage.
