August 4th, Today’s Olympic men’s basketball group stage match saw South Sudan lose to Serbia with a score of 85-96.
After the game, South Sudan’s head coach Avey continuously complained that the referee threatened to expel him, yet tolerated similar actions from Serbia’s coach. The players gave their all on the court, but the team only had 6 free throws (just 1 in the second half), and an explanation is needed.
In this match, Serbia’s team had 31 free throws while South Sudan had just 6.
