The U.S. men’s national basketball team wrapped up FIBA World Cup Group C play with an easy 110-62 victory against Jordan, finishing atop its group and easing into the second round of group play with a 3-0 record.

The U.S. started the game with a 20-4 run, ended the first quarter with a 31-12 lead and took a 62-33 lead into halftime.

Anthony Edwards of the Minnesota Timberwolves scored 10 of his team-high 22 points in the first seven minutes and 18 in the first half.

Now, the competition gets tougher for the Americans who finished seventh at the 2019 World Cup.

What’s next for the US in the FIBA World Cup?

The U.S. moves on to form Group J in the round of 16 where it will play Lithuania and Montenegro in the second phase of group play. The two teams from each of the four remaining groups advance to the quarterfinals. The winner of Group C's Greece-New Zealand game will round out Group J.

The U.S. plays Montenegro Friday (4:40 a.m. ET, ESPN2) and Lithuania Sunday (8:40 a.m. ET, ESPN).

Important reminder: Results from the first stage of group play carry over to the second stage, so the Americans’ 3-0 record and point differential is important and could come into play if tiebreakers are necessary.
