Jones Cup Champions: JORDAN, again and again!
Posted on 7/19/2008 by Rani Dababneh
Jordan National Basketball Team made it again this year and won the Jones Cup 2008, winning over the United States Basketball Team in the Final game, as Jordan also won the championship of this basketball tournament last year 2007!
Winning over USA (the team who won all games but those against Jordan) in the opening and in the Final Game, Jordan deserved the William Jones Cup for this year also, after some interesting final game and Extra Time Result: 93-91 (81-81).
The Jordanian Team left nothing for other teams as the MVP (Most Valuable Player) was also granted for the great Jordanian Player Zaid Alkhas.
