Anon, Penny was indeed replaced in China by Maya. She's currently hanging with Diana in Ekaterinburg. (She was in the stands during their last Euroleague game)
I too was hoping she would make it to this Rio event. The timing seemed perfect.

I should have included...
"The Opals play Argentina early Saturday morning (AEDT), followed by Venezuela on Sunday and Brazil on Monday."

Round 6 played last night and not all results up yet.
Women:
Mavs took care of the Lionesses 88-41. Poor shooting the problem for the Lionesses. 21.5% won't win too many games. Mavs dominated the boards.
Panthers over Tigers 70-65 in a game where Tigers should have won. A strong 3rd quarter from the Panthers won them the game.
Bearcats all over Warriors 84-61
Sabres in a one point thriller over a fast finishing Eagles 50-49.
Men:
Flames burnt the Rockets 71-65 in the early game.
Mavs over the Lions 110-91. Brad Hill had a screamer with 41 points, the GOAT with 22 points
Panthers over Tigers 84-70
Sturt over Eagles 94-83 - welcome back Jake
