China vs Serbia: Game Preview
China is coming off a disappointing 90-89 loss to Spain. Meanwhile, Serbia is looking to keep the momentum going following its 58-55 victory over Puerto Rico.
Serbia struggled on offense, shooting 32% from the field, including 29% from beyond the arc. However, they were able to take advantage of their size as they secured 49 rebounds, 15 on the offensive glass.
Their turnover numbers will need to be limited after coughing up possession 18 times in their last game.
China, meanwhile, is more than capable of scoring at a high rate. In its last game, it shot 50%, including 45% from 3-point range. It was also effective on the boards as it outrebounded Spain 45-30. However, China had issues in the turnover department as it racked up 23 against only eight from Spain.
China vs Serbia: Game Prediction
Serbia's offensive shortcomings couple play a role in this game. Turnovers aside, China was effective in limiting Spain's offense and it could do the same to Serbia. Expect China to secure a victory and improve to 1-1.
