- The USA capped off its dominant run in the FIBA U19 Basketball World Cup with one final victory in Riga, Latvia, to bring home the gold medal. An 11-0 run in the fourth quarter propelled the team to its eighth U19 World Cup title.
Purdue basketball's Jaden Ivey scored a team-high 16 points to lead the USA to an 83-81 win over France on Sunday. The team was undefeated in seven games and previously beat Turkey, Mali, Australia, Korea, Senegal and Canada.
Ivey's 16 points tied a team-lead with Louisiana Tech forward Kenneth Lofton Jr. The Boilermaker guard shot 6-of-10 from the field and made 4-of-6 from the free-throw line. He also recorded four rebounds, one block and a team-high three steals.
Purdue teammate Caleb Furst saw just under 10 minutes of action on the court, and he managed to register four points and four rebounds.
France was led by Victor Wembanyama, who scored 22 points on 6-of-14 shooting. He made all nine of his shots from the foul line and also snatched a team-high eight rebounds. The 7-foot-2 forward led his team with eight blocks against the USA.
In a back-and-forth matchup, the USA held the lead for just under two minutes longer than France throughout the game. There were four total lead changes, but the USA took advantage of 44 points in the paint and 19 fast-break points.
The USA also outrebounded France 43-29, and 16 offensive rebounds contributed to seven second-chance points. Each team's largest lead was just eight points, and the USA did enough to come away with the two-point victory. - Sport
Kenny Lofton Jr carried us for the win! He's was killing them with same spin, they was so worried about Chet they let #11 eat lol...
Nah .. they didn’t LET him eat..He just did his thing. Boi been the truth!
They wasn’t worried bout Chet boy you see who he had to guard 😂
Chubby Eleven has Sir Charles Barkley Style 😁😁🔥🔥
@@undertheglassmoon2239 Barkley was way more athletic this kid is Zach Randolph
Lmao chet wasn't even relevant in the finals victor put him in his place lol
wembanyama!! have great shot inside and outside and he is also a good defender.,the next giannis antetokompo of the nba in the future...👏👏👏
The kid with a bit of weight in the U.S team was incredible, even
wembanyama could not guard him properly under the rim
Where is he now anybody knows his location ?
@@ShabanSaulic-ow6uqlol Memphis grizzlies Kenny lofton
@@Skarluciano oh okay I never watch ⌚ grizzlies, I watch only Charlotte Hornets
@@ShabanSaulic-ow6uq Hes on the memphis grizzlies great young player
He literally scores 4pts on him lol. And Wembanyama was 16 yrs old then. Going against mostly 18 year olds.. I hope yall don't have kids
WEMBANYAMA! He will be great in the NBA moving forward and is a very, very unique player.
He in it now look at last summer league game 27 points
I was so mad with the foul out for France. The absence of Vic on the court was huge. They probably would have won had he stayed on the court. And what a show from Ivey and Lofton. Best u19 match I've seen for a while.
😢
Lofton Jr. would probably boxed out Wembanyama from getting boards. Team USA inside presence are very strong while France only inside presence is Wembanyama.
@@jarenmontaos5195 I dont really agree with that. While lofton was indeed a threat on offense he was not on defense. As long as Wemby was on the court France had the lead. They would have probably won without the foul out.
What a game! So much skill and athleticism!
Lofton Jr is a unit who bangs down low…hope to see him do that in March even though he plays for La Tech I believe
One of the most competitive age grade basketball tournament ever.
Swish, please drop them Wembanyama euro highlights when their season starts.
Troll
Wembanyama will be amazing once he is drafted in 2023 and arrives stateside to play in the NBA.
@@vishnujayakumar1846 One of the greatest players I've ever seen and I'm almost 40 years old..
Where was the French Defense down the stretch ???
The sequence starting at 5:46 is so good by Ivey. Jabs into the ballhandler to make him pick up the ball and then jumps the passing lane. Then leads the break himself with a nice controlled finish
Fax
wembanyama, 17's old, with his skills and his 7,5ft... just the best potential!!
Yeeeap
Dear, NBA players, this is how you play as a team and play through the game with out looking for fouls.
pin this comment!
A whole lotta talent on the floor in this game
Wembanyama is a beast he gon be a good player
I liked how Kenny Lofton Jr. used his size and bulk to ward off the bigger or taller players when it came to getting the inside baskets.
Lofton is so strong. Unstopable in low post. 👏👏👏
This could be useful in the NBA in the right environment
@AlexanderChristopher-qg4kl what is the connection of basketball to your Allah? Just follow your Allah so you will get your rewards of having multiple virgin girls. 😭
Love the work of the big man lofton
Kenny Lofton Jr... what a player!!! He remember me the 80's and 90's and that battles on the paint. I like it a lot. I'm a big fan from now and on.
Facts
Boy that Lofton young man is a little taste of old school that I truly miss.
Yeah but you know he won’t be able to do that in Nba
@@nimanabavi5325 Why not?.. Of course he will. He’s a more athletic Zach Randoplh
I think his post-scoring would punish smaller, weaker bigs emblematic of the ongoing small-ball revolution if the NBA.
Similar to someone like Zion Williamson (I'm in no way, shape, or form, comparing him to Zion or saying that he will be as good as Zion), Kenny Lofton Jr. has thr unique ability to physically dominate smaller bigs, which could prove advantageous in the proper situation.
@@nimanabavi5325 His post-scoring could be effective in the correct situation and his defense is not that bad. He can punish smaller bigs with his size and physical style of play, which can be used to effectively counter small-ball, which centers around playing either no true big or smaller, weaker bigs who are in reality pure wing players playing out of position.
@@vishnujayakumar1846 Except he's as small as bigs come.
Lofton post game is amazing
He looking like a big barkley underneath
Great skills on both sides!
4:56 Love this, make me feel like back to 90s.
Rookie match up for NBA next season is exciting 🔥
WOW, that was a more exciting game than a college or NBA basketball game.
Lofton on his bully basketball down low....💪💪💪
Ivey really a great PG
Jaden Ivey should declare for the draft.
Yeah he’s like that. Reminds me of Dmitchell with that explosiveness
@@jamalcooper7544 spot on
And he will after he gets his stock up even more… 😅😅😅
Reminds me of a young Iman Shumpert
@@jamalcooper7544 morant
thats some real basketball loved it. 11 won it
Ivey is the real deal!!! Lottery next year
Great power displayed of a power forward
#11 is a bully like Zach Randolph. Love seeing him tear up everybody in the post.
Good comparison! Kenneth Lofton Jr is a beast down low
Lofton strong inside, next five star recruit in the NBA draft soon!
Loften is like a mini Shaquille, it will be interesting with the shift of big men being more versatile, will Kenny L force teams back to traditional centers if he starts overwhelming the paint on both ends of the court. We shall see
Wenbanyama & Ivey are future NBA all-stars
I think Wembanyama will be a franchise C for whatever NBA team he lands on. He has superstar potential.
Don't know too much about Ivey though.
Big boy in the post is next up what’s his name? 🤔 it’s litttt 🔥
Bruh #9 is electric af 🤯
Great game, insane pace haha
Damn, if I was a GM in the NBA I would put Lofton in my roster👍 he can be a big factor if the Memphis gave him descent playing time, he can over power any defender around him💪🏀
No he can’t
nope
Partidazo, vive la France!!!
Holmgreen vs wenbanyama is 🔥🔥🔥
Damn the defense always collapses when lofton has the ball its either 1 on 1 where it as a chance of points or double team on him which results of an open man.. I love his presence in the court.
Bro victor the best prospect in the World. I hope he wont be injury prone since i saw him last time he was injured
He'll be a great player in the NBA and I cannot wait to watch him
Kenny is such an underrated player
How did I miss this 😢
Turn your headphones down if you read this first. Lofton Jr. out there putting in work!
Lofton and Ivey are really tough
Big teams!!!
We need tournament highlights of Victor
Yes, of course. His rare mixture of 3-point shooting, rim-protection, shot-blocking, and size will make him a huge problem and extremely tough match-up in the NBA.
Chet is going to be a future MVP one day
🤣
Kenny lofton jr reminded me over jared sullinger because he was under size big man with great footwork
Fatboy true final MVP
At least look his name up dawg ☠️
@@Ms-up9pi 🤣🤣🤣
Remember his name..Kenneth Lofton Jr💪🏾
Yes Ken Lofton jr
@@Ms-up9pi lmao.
Great came
*game
Nice game
Kenny Lofton Jr will be a star in the NBA!
Idk i seriously doubt it...hes what 6'8 or so with no jump shot....hes a wide body against sticks but nba a league of grown men.
@@tslice8907 6tf7 actually....
@@PSICK1234ikillallracistrolls That was guess judging by the video. Y i said or so, plus thats even worse for his nba potential
@@tslice8907 You don’t know basketball. He’s literally doing it against 7 footers and his strength and size will be the same against pros. He’s more athletic than Zach Randolph who is a great comparison. You don’t know basketball if you think this guy won’t be able to compete in the NBA
@@c-ro9710 zach randolph was doing that 10-15 yrs ago when the league played a different style of basketball. He would be a dinosaur in today's game...Lofton Jr is Zion without the quickness and vertical which is what makes him so special at that size. I just made the arguement hes not gonna be a star in the nba and not that he wont make it...obviously u dont know the game homie😂😂
All the while I thought Lofton wasnt gonna contribute much other than bang bodies so Chet and Baldwin can get rebounds. Chandler doesnt play well with other point guards. Miles and Miller outshined him on this one
don't know who is USA #11 but absolute beast, unstoppable
Better game than most NBA one's 🤨
I would've liked to see what Baonchero would've done against Victor.
Just a bad game from chet but yea same.
@@DEMI-sq5uf Wasn't close to the best team USA could've put out there. No Paolo or Jaden Hardy.
@@mikejones9906 true
@James Graham Facts but I would still like to see it.
32 from France is a dawg
Wemby dunks on Chet 2:26 and 3:52
#32 on France is going to be a problem
Yo creo que claramente el Madrid necesita a Juancho,generadores de fuera tiene mucho más,con el español vendría más rebote , además de tiro de hombre grande,y gran competencia para que Yabusele de un paso hacia delante e intente ser más regular
#11 is big baby jr. Just like Glenn Davis, but lefty
The fact that Skip and Shannon didn't know when Chet said Lofton Jr was his dog, that they won an u19 world championship together lol the CZcams algorithm had to teach me this fact
Lofton so goood in this game
1:06 👍🏼
#9 for the U.S is a speed demon
France would’ve won for sure if Victor didn’t foul out. Congratulations to USA for the Win
Damn, bruh.. so many highlights.. they are only 19!
Kenny lofton just like baby barkley
Lofton is a beast
Who is #11 for the USA 💪🏿💪🏿😤
Kenneth lofton
France is a minor country of basket, a contrario to USA, it's a bit surprising to see them in final and being truly in position to win the match...
I saw those 2 slender men on the picture for the video. I thought this was supposed to be a horror movie . They look hungry.
Lofton reminds me of zach randolph.. if he enters NBA, he's gonna have a long and good career...
Good career? He is getting waived every time lol
There are some ballers on this court
@@AlexanderChristopher-qg4kl Could not agree more he is a "god", not the God.or otherwise know as God "I AM".
レベル高ぇー！
たまたま昨日観た日体大対白鵬大の試合がう○ちに思える！
Battle of THIN center😂😂😂
they need feed those 2 centers a lot of triple burgers
Good basketball right thuuur
Yessir
Lofton reminds me of Charles Barkley.
Nah #30 arc at 2:19 is kinda crazy
Edit: 2:15
wow they almost lost
Solid Kenny Lofton lakas ng katawan maganda abangan sa NBA Toh kain lahat sa ilalim
Lofton Jr. too strong
Did anyone notice Wemby’s toothpick body got injured or hurt just being banged by a thick body in this game??? I think he played much after being hurt
#9 and #5 on USA JUMPING ON THE DAMN GYM😹💯who theyyy???
Chet holmgren is no doubt the best player that isn't even able to play until next season because he suffered an injury, but he'll be ready to go come the 2023-2024 season!😎🏀 NO ONE WILL BE ABLE TO STOP HIM!🗣️
wemby will lol
Very positive comment. :D
@@lemarcoX Chet had the better debut vs each other. We will see this Regular season
@@SeverancePay500 and last night just happened lol
Lofton"big baby davis'
Why isn’t emoni bates playing for team USA?
Y did France bench victor @ the end of gm
These skinny tall dudes are the new dominant breed of basketball
What was the name of the black kid on the Ametican team with highlights in his hair?
A lack of defense from france
Shoes are much squeakier in FIBA it's really physical on the ears.
Chet looked decent, coach didn't run enough plays for him.
Wembanyama would go number one in the draft THIS YEAR.
Nah that Cade 100%
@@jasoncarpenter4129 Victor is was better he’s generational. Something you’d make in a lab. A cade type comes around at a way higher rate.
@@jasoncarpenter4129 Stop it
@@joseph1824 yea dude reminds me of Kareem and wilt
@@mikejones9906 yea and he’s only 17 he still needs to be more efficent 47/18 splits at 7’3 is bad ngl but as he gets older he’ll end up being dominate

2024 anyone ?
They got revenge by beating the USA in the semi-finals.
