Poland’s American coach, Mike Taylor, said: “We have demonstrated in the last few years that our players can rise to the occasion.”
Taylor, as cited by the eurohoops.net website, added: “The key was how we reacted to the ball pressure and of course the rebounds and teamwork. It’s a great start to the tournament for us.”
On Monday, Poland take on hosts China in a group A match. Two days later they face off against the Ivory Coast.
