Despite an unfortunate incident involving two New York Liberty depth stars, Germany took down Belgium in its Olympic Games debut.
Thanks to a pair of New York Liberty depth stars, Germany's women's national basketball team got off to a perfect start in its maiden Olympic voyage.
Sabally left the affair in the penultimate minute of the third period, taking Fiebich's inadvertant shoulder to her chin while passing her on a handoff. As Fiebich checked on her, Sabally clutched her jaw and was tended to by a trainer. Despite her early exit, Sabally was tied with Fiebich as Germany's second-leading scorer behind only her sister Satou . The metropolitan duo scored the first six points in Germany's Olympic basketball history, with Sabally tipping things off with a successful and-one. They hit their first seven shots en route to building a 46-25 lead at the intermission.
From there, Germany never trailed, carrying on a theme of upsets after Nigeria upset Australia in the opener of Monday's quartet.
