BASKETBALL
Luol Deng reminded Great Britain what they were
missing last summer as he scored 32 points to lead them to a 91-82
victory in their opening European Championship qualifier in Hungary.
Deng, who missed the EuroBasket last year through injury, struggled
with his shooting at times, making only three of 10 from two-point
range, but the tenacious guard found other ways to win as he nailed
five three-pointers and drew plenty of fouls.
CYCLING
André Greipel put the chaotic climax to
Monday's stage firmly behind him by sprinting to victory on day two
of the Tour of Poland. |
