Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is a close second to Luka Doncic as 2023 FIBA's top player, despite the fact that Doncic unquestionably possesses the distinction. It is simple to identify the driving factor for their long-running dominance given the extra influences surrounding him. After three games, their wins have an average point difference of 37. They just defeated the competent Latvia with a win of 101-75.
Interestingly, building on the hint from Shaq, Canada manages to outpace the USA in a specific aspect despite having yet to encounter them directly. In the number of games played, Canada claims the highest differential in the tournament, a staggering 111 points. Meanwhile, the USA occupies the fourth position, trailing behind Lithuania’s 76 and Serbia’s 59 points.
