USA 99, Brazil 67

A respectable effort in tonight's exhibition game, though Team USA let Brazil get too close mid-game for the liking of some fans.

Lindsay Whalen was named the Tiffany Player of the Game with 21 points and five assists.

Highlights.

Would love to put up the box score, but no one has it. I'm irritated.

Sue Bird didn't play, due to a death in her family.

After the game, Team USA met President Obama, who offered his congratulations. (He had just watched them play)

This morning, the team went to Arlington National Cemetery.

They have a gold standard to live up to.

Lindsay Whalen and Maya Moore went different routes.
