Team USA changed its Olympics fortunes in women's 3x3 basketball with two clutch shots.
Entering the day with a 1–3 record and three matchups remaining in pool play, the Americans needed to get hot to avoid being eliminated before the six-team tournament format begins Saturday.
But Rhyne Howard rolled in a layup to cut the deficit to two points, and after Canada missed two shots, TCU star Hailey Van Lith knocked down a shot beyond the perimeter to tie the game with 18 seconds left, and the game went to overtime.
