With Luis Scola and Facundo Campazzo marked, another player has to ask for the ball. And that was Nicolás Laprovittola, who scored a tremendous three-pointer in the second quarter of Argentina vs Spain in the 2019 Basketball World Cup in China.
After an attempted score for Argentina, Spain fell back on defense. At that moment, Campazzo - unable to make a filtered pass - gave it to Nicolás Laprovittola, who was on the wing. The point guard took advantage of the fact that his defender wasn't too tight and scored a three-pointer.
The Argentine national team is playing its second final in a Basketball World Cup since 2002, when it lost to the former Yugoslavia by 64-62 in the United States. In addition, it has once been crowned champion of the tournament in 1950, the first one.
In this Basketball World Cup China 2019, the 'Albiceleste' has defeated teams like Poland, Serbia, and France; on the other hand, Spain has beaten Australia, Poland, among others. The Spaniards are also looking for their second trophy after the 2006 edition, when they defeated Greece in the final in Japan.
