MANILA: The FIBA Basketball World Cup got underway in three Asian countries on Friday , with co-hosts the Philippines losing to Dominican Republic 87-81 in a game that shattered the tournament's 29-year-old attendance record.
The basketball-obsessed and boisterous Filipino fans went home disappointed, however, following the defeat of the 40th-ranked Philippines to 23rd-ranked Dominican Republic. Hometown fans booed Towns every time he had the ball early in the game but the Minnesota Timberwolves player led the Dominican Republic with 26 points, mostly on free throws drawn by bullying his way to the hoop.Philippines President Ferdinand Marcos Jr watched the game on the opening day of the tournament's 19th edition that will run until Sep10.
Australia overcame Finland 98-72, and Germany beat co-host Japan 81-63 in Okinawa. In Jakarta, Latvia overwhelmed Lebanon 109-70 led by Dairis Bertans' 20 points, while Canada beat France 95-65.
