Shoes .S. national basketball team has added Rudy Gay, who helped
them win a gold medal four years ago and asked to rejoin the team following a
series of player withdrawals. USA Basketball managing director Jerry Colangelo
received a call Thursday night, shortly after Kevin Durant pulled out, and was
told that Gay was available if he and coach Mike Krzyzewski were interested. "We
both felt he would be a valuable addition because of his outstanding skills and
the fact that he is so familiar with USA Basketball and our national team
program," Colangelo said Friday in a statement. "Rudy has been an integral
member of USA Basketball since 2005 and was a tremendous contributor to our 2010
world championship team. He has a lot of equity in the USA Basketball national
team." Gay, the Sacramento Kings forward, appeared in all nine games for the
Americans in the 2010 world championship, averaging 7.0 points off the bench. He
also was one of the last cuts made by the 2012 Olympic team. The U.S. roster is
back at 16 players. The Americans resume practice Thursday in Chicago, with the
World Cup of Basketball set to begin on Aug. 30 in Spain. They will have to cut
to 12 before then. "I am extremely excited to once again be part of Team USA and
its rich tradition," Gay said. "I cant wait to join my teammates in Chicago and
work hard to make certain the USA takes home the gold in Spain." The 6-foot-8
Gay averaged 20 points last season for Toronto and Sacramento. He is a good fit
for the Americans because he can swing between both forward spots, which would
have been filled by Durant and Paul George, who broke his right leg last week.

The Atlanta Hawks only needed one spectacular quarter to earn their first
back-to-back wins of the season. NEW YORK -- For C.J. Wilson and the Los Angeles
Angels, this was pretty close to a complete game. Wilson beat the Yankees for
the first time in his career, Albert Pujols and his teammates teed off and the
Angels romped past New York 7-1 Saturday. Howie Kendrick, Chris Iannetta and
Vernon Wells homered as the Angels ended their three-game skid and stopped New
Yorks winning streak at four. "We have a couple new pieces and were just looking
to jell," Wilson said. Add in a spotless effort by the bullpen plus some nice
fielding plays and this looked like the powerful Angels club many people
predicted. "I think were scratching the surface of what we can do," manager Mike
Scioscia said. Pujols got in the swing, too, after a quiet start with his new
team. He singled sharply his first time up, then hit an RBI double that
one-hopped the centre-field wall. He later lined out twice and flied out to the
fence in left. The three-time NL MVP is still looking for his first home run of
the year. He hasnt connected in eight games -- that matches his longest homer
drought at the start of a season, also done in 2008 with St. Louis. "The thing
we dont want to do is put too much pressure on yourself," Pujols said. Wilson
(2-0) effectively pitched inside and worked out of frequent trouble, allowing
only one run in six innings. He gave up back-to-back singles to start the game
and stranded runners at second and third in each of his last three innings.
Wilson, who along with Pujols signed a rich free-agent deal in the off-season,
had been 0-3 lifetime against the Yankees. That spanned 21 games, four of them
starts. "I dont know if its about anybody having to own up to any contract,"
Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. Los Angeles had lost five of its previous six
games, with poor starts a major culprit. Wilson provided the key pitches -- as
he did in his debut against Minnesota -- and delivered yet another quality
performance on the road. "I think he got us to chase some pitches off thhe plate
inside, and thats what he does," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said.

2015. . "He can get you to expand the zone and he can break bats
and get in on guys. When he got the ball away, we hit pretty good, but when he
got it in, we did not." The Angels backed Wilson with big hits, most of them off
Phil Hughes (0-2). The three home runs equaled their total from the entire
season. Iannetta put them ahead with his first AL homer, a two-run slice inside
the right-field foul pole in the second. Pujols made it 3-0 with his double and
Kendrick, a longtime Yankees nemesis, finished Hughes with a three-run homer in
the fourth. Kendrick got three hits. Hughes drew a smattering of boos when he
walked off the mound. An All-Star in 2010, he struggled last year and went just
4 2-3 innings last weekend in his first start against Tampa Bay. With
Michael Pineda and Andy Pettitte expected to rejoin the Yankees at some point,
Hughes spot in the rotation isnt assured. Wells hit his 250th career home run in
the fifth, connecting against reliever David Phelps for a 7-0 lead. Phelps had
started his major league career this year by retiring 13 straight batters before
Wells homered. That was the lone hit Phelps gave up in 5 1-3 innings.
