Dailey Jr. Scores Six in USA’s Third Place 84-70 Faulter Against Turkey

Oklahoma State incoming freshman Eric Dailey Jr. dropped six points in USA Basketball’s 84-70 loss to Turkey in the third-place game on Sunday afternoon.

Dailey’s six points came on 3-of-6 shooting from the field, 0-for-2 from three-point range, as well as four rebounds, two assists, one block and four turnovers.

In seven games, Dailey’s performance was solid as he finished the 2023 U19 Basketball World Cup with an average of 9.7 points, 4.3 rebounds 1.6 assists and a total of seven blocks. OSU head coach Mike Boynton was one of the on-court assistant coaches for the Americans.

Dailey committed to the Pokes back in early January 2023 over offers from Florida State, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, TCU and Texas A&M among others.
