A'ja Wilson leads Team USA to rout of Japan in Olympic opener

Breanna Stewart backstopped A'ja Wilson with 22 points and eight rebounds. Kelsey Plum, Sabrina Ionescu and Brittney Griner each had 11 points.

Veteran point guard Chelsea Gray, meanwhile, only had two points but had 13 assists.

For Japan, it was guard Maki Takada who top-scored with 24 points, followed by Mai Yamamoto with 17.

Following the game, Wilson spoke about their performance in the opener, highlighting the need for them to continue to dominate in the paint.

She said, by way of The Washington Post:

"Points in the paint and controlling the boards are going to be huge for us moving forward. So if we can continue that, I feel like we're in good shape."

Apart from the U.S. and Japan, also playing in Group C in the preliminary round are Germany and Belgium. The U.S. squad next plays on Aug. 2 against Belgium.
