Shai Gilgeous-Alexander led the way with 31 points and 10 rebounds followed by Barret who had 24 makers and nine boards. Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Dillon Brooks chipped in 14 points each in the triumph.

00:00 How important was for you to make a big performance, also shine, big stage of the World Cup and qualify for a semifinal?
00:10 I think what you see from our team is that it could be anybody. Of course Shade is a snake, he's always going to do what he does.
00:20 But just in terms of everyone else, last game was Dylan, you couldn't afford that loop play. It could be anybody on our team that has that.
00:30 I think that's one of our strengths.
00:32 From the Olympic Channel, what's the message that Team Canada is sending to the world of basketball?
00:39 Put it into context, this obviously the World Cup and the Olympics.
00:44 I think that we're shining, we're such a hard working team. We're a hard working team that when we come together and do the right things,
00:53 and listen to what the coach is telling us to do, we can be special.
