Out of all the US Exhibition games, this was definitely the most interesting game of it all. These are some of my notes from the game:

1) Once again, turnovers haunted USA. They started the 1st half very sluggish. Kudos to South Sudan, their defense was very effective. Especially, their doubling in the post was effective in forcing turnovers.

2) South Sudan was raining threes. Looking at the box score, they were able to hit 14/33 threes. Not the most efficient, but they were still letting it fly over Team USA.

3) The 2nd unit helped USA to regain the lead. In the 3rd Quarter, the line-up of White, Edwards, Tatum, Adebayo and AD really helped their comeback in the 3rd. USA hounded South Sudan with that line-up.

4) Carlik Jones. That dude, man. He got a triple double in this game, against THE Team USA. Despite standing at 6’0, he was scoring all over LeBron and AD. Hope this dude gets more recognition and get signed to an NBA Team.

5) LeBron James. Dude was playing like it was the NBA Finals. He really got aggressive in the 3rd and 4th. And of course, in classic LeBron fashion: his layup helped sealed the deal in a very close game.
