Teams Preview

Philippines

The Philippines Women endured a difficult outing in their 85-38 loss to Canada in Group B of the FIBA Women’s Olympic Pre-Qualifying Tournament in Guadalajara. Canada’s defensive pressure immediately disrupted the Philippines, who struggled to establish consistent offensive rhythm against a much bigger and deeper opponent.

Jack Animam led the charge with 11 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists, while Vanessa De Jesus added 9 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists. The rest of the remaining cast just failed to provide enough support. 

Offensively, the Philippines just shot 28% from the field, including a poor 19.2% from the three point range and just 30% from the free throw line. Defensively, they got outrebounded 63-31 on the boards, made multiple defensive lapses and committed 23 turnovers.

This result leaves them facing a challenging position in Group B. However, the Philippines can take lessons from the experience. Overall, the team averages 48 points per game, while dishing out 13 assists. Defensively, they record 34 rebounds, 6.5 steals and 3 blocks per game. 

Senegal

Senegal Women struggled to maintain consistency in their 79-65 defeat to Mexico in Group B of the FIBA Women’s Olympic Pre-Qualifying Tournament in Guadalajara.

Cierra Dillard led the scoring with 26 points, while Khadija Faye contributed 19 points and 13 rebounds. Madjiguene Sene added 11 points and 10 rebounds, but their individual efforts weren't enough.  

Offensively, Senegal shot 41.7% from the two point range, but struggled with 11.8% from the three point range and 70.4% from the free throw line. Defensively, they managed to win the battle on the glass (45-39), but committed 17 turnovers and their perimeter defense allowed Mexico to convert 46.9% from deep. 

The defeat exposed Senegal’s difficulty in dealing with Mexico’s perimeter efficiency and early offensive pressure. Senegal must improve their starts, defensive communication and shot efficiency if they are to win their upcoming match. 

Overall, the team averages 61 points per game, while dishing out 13 assists. Defensively, they record 40 rebounds, 9.5 steals and 3 blocks per game.
