New Zealand, which won the Silver Medal in last year’s FIBA Oceana tournament to qualify for the World Cup and is ranked 19th in FIBA, has a former NBA player in Kirk Penney and three active college players: Hawaii’s Issac Fotu, Saint Louis’ Rob Low and Nebraska’s Tai Webster.

The Americans, who haven’t lost in international play since 2006, won their first two games by an average margin of 40 points.

Heavy’s Pick

United States 110, New Zealand 75

Turkey, widely considered the second best team in Group C, crumbled in the second half against the U.S. when Anthony Davis came alive and the Americans played with better offensive flow. And New Zealand is no Turkey, despite having nearly beaten the Turks. This game will more closely resemble Team USA’s bashing of Finland than its relatively close one against Turkey.
