Canada gets its 2021 FIBA AmeriCup underway on Saturday with a game against the U.S. Virgin Islands.
The Canadians are favoured to top Group A in the tournament, which is being played in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Coming off a silver medal at the 2019 event, Canada will look to regain its place atop the podium after back-to-back first-place finishes in the 2015 and 2017 editions.
The first step is against the tiny U.S. protectorate, which kicked off its tournament on Friday with a 72-60 loss to Colombia. The USVI will be a massive underdog on Saturday, but with a game already under its belt the island nation will hope to catch Canada off guard.
