OSSE IS THE MAN AS QUEBEC TAKES GOLD |
|
The
Quebec team are the Golden Boys of Canadian basketball, taking top spot at the
Canada Games with a 105-103 thriller over Nova Scotia.
Montreal
guard Kemy Osse scored twice in the final five seconds, including a
long J with 0.1 seconds left on the clock to seal the deal in P.E.I.
Osse, a
6-1 scoring wizard, scored a game-high 30 points and solidified his
status as one of Canada's top rising 'ballers.
Kenny
Chery and Kewyn Blain added 21 points for Team Quebec.
VALIANT
COMEBACK
Quebec
had to hold on for the win after coughing up a 17-point first-half lead.
Nova
Scotia's 20-0 third-quarter run erased the deficit, and Quebec actually fell
behind by four with 4.8 seconds left.
That's
when Osse took over. |
 |
|
Osse scored 30 points, including
the game-winner. |
|
First he
scored off a steal, then Nova Scotia gave away the rock again on the very
next possession.
Osse took
the inbounds pass and scored from near the top of the key for the win.
Deontay Smith of Halifax topped Nova Scotia with 27 points, while
Mandrez Downey of Cole Harbour, N.S. added 23.
OSSE
ONE TO WATCH
Osse
left
Montreal to play for Archbishop Carroll in Washington D.C.,
but he showed his loyalty
by coming back home to play for Quebec. He's really making a name for
himself south of the border.
