On July 31, in the women’s basketball group stage of the Paris Olympics, the Puerto Rico women’s basketball team narrowly lost to the Spanish team, 62-63, suffering their second consecutive defeat. In the final round, they will face the Chinese women’s basketball team.
In the previous match against the Serbian women’s basketball team, Puerto Rico nearly pulled off a comeback, mounting a 19-3 offensive in the final quarter, almost achieving an incredible turnaround. This time, facing the Spanish team, after being at a disadvantage in the first half, they regained their form in the second half and mounted a 19-5 offensive in a quarter, directly leveling the score. They nearly secured victory in the final moments but unfortunately failed to protect their rebounds.
They lost by three points in the first game and by one point in the second, with Puerto Rico catching up in both games despite being at a disadvantage. Unfortunately, they still suffered two consecutive losses, which is somewhat regrettable. Three players from Puerto Rico scored in double digits this time: Gillenantes scored 15 points and had 4 assists; Hollingshed scored 10 points and grabbed 12 rebounds, hitting a turnaround jump shot in the final moments that put the team ahead by one point, nearly winning the game; Rosado scored 11 points.
