Live: Opals struggling in Olympic opener against Nigeria, divers go for gold, Djokovic and Nadal face off

Phew, what did we just watch?!
In the last 15 seconds, two turnovers earned Nigeria four points. There was another steal right on the siren, which mercifully didn’t result in another goal.
The Opals (world No. 3) have conceded a massive 16 turnovers to 8, some of them self-inflicted wounds, and are only managing 34% scoring accuracy.
Meanwhile Nigeria (world No. 12) is defending with confidence and landing big-baskets. It might be their best half of Olympics basketball ever.
Ezinne Kalu is up to 17 points, most recently a three-pointer followed up by a free-throw. 23 points to 11 Nigeria’s way in that quarter.
Jackson’s been doing well defending, and landed a much-needed three-pointer in the final three minutes.
