Probably the Alvarado injury (he returned later though) was a shift in momentum, nevertheless South Sudan outrebounded their opponent 55 - 37 (!) and some key contributors performed below their possibilities (nervous because playing on the "big stage" ?) .... the US will not underestimate them (like they did in the prep game) for sure and is clear favourite .... but (the story of) South Sudan won the fans over anyway ....
