Different look, same result for Canada's 3x3 women's basketball team. The Canadians made it 17 consecutive victories with a 21-13 win over Egypt following a narrow 20-18 decision over Austria earlier Sunday to open group play at the Women's Series stop in Debrecen, Hungary.

Keishana Washington took charge against Egypt, scoring 10 points and going 2-for-4 from two-point range. She didn't get on the board until almost the halfway mark of the 10-minute match when she drew the Canadians even at 7-7 and proceeded to score four of the next five points.

Later, Washington scored three straight points, including two from the free-throw line, extending Canada's lead to 16-9. With 39 seconds on the clock, she cemented victory with a two-pointer.
