Here’s a quick look at how athletes from Melbourne’s north-west went on day three.

Basketball

The Opals displayed one of their most disappointing Olympics performances ever on Monday night, Australian time, in their loss to Nigeria. The Opals were comprehensively beaten in the 75-62 in a performance riddled with turnovers and missed free throws. Ezi Magbegor scored nine points for the Aussies, while skipper Tess Madgen scored two points.

Shooting

James Willett sits second after day two of qualification for the men’s trap event. He shot two rounds of 25 and one of 24, the same as the top ranked Rickard Levin-Andersson.
