French basketball players won their second World Cup victory by crushing Jordan 103-64 on Tuesday in Shenzhen.

The Blues will play the first place in their group in their last game of the first round Thursday against the Dominican Republic. The Dominicans created the surprise on Tuesday by eliminating Germany.

The French put about fifteen minutes (33-31 in the middle of the second quarter) before widening the gap against their modest opponents. They totally flew over the rest of the match.

Rudy Gobert (16 points) totally dominated inside the best Jordanian player Ahmad Al-Dwairi. Nando De Colo scored 19 points.
