Hamby's heroics lift U.S. women's 3x3 basketball team over Brazil for AmeriCup gold

Tournament MVP Dearica Hamby made an off-balance, falling-down shot off a lob from Kelsey Mitchell as time expired, lifting the U.S. to a 21-20 win over Brazil in the women's gold-medal game at the FIBA 3x3 AmeriCup on Sunday in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

Hamby's shot — a one-pointer, since baskets in 3x3 are worth one inside the arc and two outside the arc — capped a huge rally from the Americans. They trailed 19-13 with 2:02 left in the game, which is decided when someone reaches 21 points or when the 10-minute game clock expires.

HAMBY CALLS GOLD!!
