And seven! The United States' domination of the U17 category is unchallenged since, on Sunday, Team USA won the World Cup for the seventh time in a row!
And the Americans left only crumbs to others, like Italy, which was beaten 129-88 in the final! Before that, Sharman White's players had crushed almost everyone since they finished the competition with an average difference of 64 points! Only France, beaten 104-81 in the first group match, resisted…
France finishes 9th
Since 2010, the Americans have reigned over the category, and it is Carlos Boozer's son, Cameron Boozer, who is elected MVP of the competition. MVP of the U16 Americas Cup in 2023, Cayden's twin compiled 24 points and 13 rebounds in the final against the Italians, and he is obviously elected in the best five of the competition alongside his teammate AJ Dybantsa, the Italian Maikcol Perez, the Turkish Kaan Onat and the New Zealander Oscar Goodman.
Author of 26 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists in the final, Koa Peat achieved the double, since he was world champion in 2022 alongside Cooper Flagg and Ron Holland, drafted in 5th position by the Pistons.
In the match for third place, Turkey dominated New Zealand in front of their home crowd (101-78), while France finished in 9th place. Finalist in 2022, Spain is 7th.
