What happened

The U.S. women's national team is short on practice time heading into a major competition where anything less than winning a gold medal is considered a failure. The Americans will have to jell quickly if they hope to win a fifth straight FIBA women's World Cup. The tournament begins Friday, when the U.S. plays China in one of eight games in Berlin.
