USA vs Japan Betting Preview & Updates
The United States team is loaded with talent. The wild part about American women’s basketball is that the All-Star team they scrimmaged with last week has just as much talent. There is plenty to go around right now in America. The leader of this team is 27-year-old A’Ja Wilson. She leads all of the WNBA player stats in scoring.
Jackie Young is one of her teammates in Vegas. The 26-year-old will help run the offense. The veteran Diana Taurasi just turned 42 years old, and will be a big part of this team as well. Kelsey Plum, Breanna Stewart, Jewell Loyd, and Sabrina Ionescu will also play key roles.
When Team Japan played in the William Jones Cup, the top scorers on that team were Haru Owaki and Fujisawa Yuka. They both scored 10.4 points per game. Mona Tatyama added 9.5 points per game. During those games, every player averaged just shy of 20 minutes per game.
Team Japan during the three preseason games has been led by Mai Yamamoto. She is scoring 17 points per game, and making nearly 65% from downtown. Next is Evelyn Mawuli, with 14 points per game. Saori Miyazaki and Saki Hayashi are next with 13 and 11.7 points per game.
