U.S. Women Dominate Hungary to Reach Semifinals | Global News

The U.S. women’s basketball team obliterated Hungary 108-56 to secure their spot in the FIBA World Cup semifinals, extending their historic 34-game winning streak dating back to 2006. Napheesa Collier led the way with 19 points, but it was the whole squad’s unselfish, electric offense — including a record-setting 31 assists — that made this performance legendary. They jumped out to a 36-12 first-quarter lead and shot an astonishing 77% early, while shutting down Hungary’s top scorer. A brief scare for Sonia Citron after a nose injury didn’t slow them down — Caitlin Clark nearly posted another double-double with 10 points and 9 assists. Hungary, making their first-ever quarterfinal appearance, fought valiantly but couldn’t match the American juggernaut. Now, Team USA turns focus to the medal round, aiming for another world title.
