Blue with 5 steals

Not taking many shots....overall he is 5/9 from 2, 1/2 from 3.

Luke Winn's tweet:Vander Blue is everywhere vs. ARG. Steals, great open-floor passes, slick pull-up Js. He, DJO + Cadougan are gonna make a great Marq bkcourt

Most shots he's put up this tourney by a longshot..

He has 13 points.. Irving and Rivers are huge offensively.. Van is the man on d and all around...4 point Brazil lead, 6 minutes left.. hella game..

.... nice dish to Q Miller for the trey.. US by 3 with 25 seconds to go

Was Vander the only non-mcdonals's all american on the team?   Earning a starting spot and equally impressively being in the game in crunch time says alot about this kids abilities.
