Team USA has a couple of days off in the FIBA Women's World Cup after winning Group D and advancing to the quarterfinals of the tournament in Berlin, Germany.

Meanwhile, the Americans improved to 3-0 at the World Cup, completing a sweep in group play with a 105-64 rout of Czechia in Berlin, Germany, on Monday, Sept. 7. The 41-point victory is the USA's 33rd consecutive World Cup win, a streak that dates back to 2006.

Breanna Stewart, who is playing in her fourth World Cup, is averaging 10.3 point and 8.3 rebounds. Jackie Young is America's leading scorer, averaging 11.3 points. Caitlin Clark is the leader in assists (6.3 per game), Paige Bueckers in blocks (1.3 per game) and Rhyne Howard in steals (1.7 per game).

(Caitlin) provides a great playmaking aspect to her game on our team, Team USA coach Kara Lawson remarked We rely on her at the point guard position when she's in, to run the team. We saw that in the first game when she had 11 assists and zero turnovers.

"She's another young player that's feeling her way through her first World Cup, you know? And she's really motivated and wanting to support our team win. And I think that's a great place to be. And I think all of our young players will take a lot from these three pool play games, offer them a lot of confidence as we go into the middle round."

Meanwhile, the USA plays the winner of Hungary vs. Japan in the quarterfinals on Sept. 10.
