Spain defeated Puerto Rico 107 – 84, a few days before the two teams compete in the Olympic Games tournament that tips off Saturday (27/7). This was the last game for Spain captain Rudy Fernandez in domestic territory since he’s retiring after the Olympics. Fernandez scored nine points and hit a triple late in the game before Spain coach Sergio Scariolo substituted him so that the crowd, teammates and opponents could give him a well-deserved standing ovation. -via EuroHoops.net / July 23, 2024
