The halftime horn has sounded, and the score is deadlocked at 25-25 between the United States and France in their FIBA basketball matchup. The game has been characterized by a lackluster shooting performance from both teams, with neither side able to establish a significant lead.

France has managed to stifle the American offense with their tenacious defense, causing Team USA to commit a staggering 13 turnovers in the first half alone. This has allowed the French team to stay competitive despite their own shooting struggles.

One notable difference in the game has been the three-point shooting, where France has capitalized on their opportunities while the US has yet to make a shot from long range. France has attempted 18 three-pointers, connecting on three of them, showcasing their willingness to take outside shots.
