SHAOXING (2006/07 FIBA Women's World League) - WCBA All Stars China made it three straight wins in the FIBA Women's World League after ending TEO's own 100% record.

The Group A hosts survived an impressive fightback from their Lithuanian opponents in Shaoxing to run out 79-73 winners.

A 24-9 third-quarter was the key to the Chinese outfit's victory, with Lijie Miao the star after netting 23 of their points.

TEO - who had also won their opening two games - made a real fight of it late on, but Egle Sulciute and Sandra Valuzyte's 17 points proved in vain.

The battle to avoid three straight defeats was won by Canberra Capitals, who crushed Baltiyskaya Zwezda 59-36 for their first victory of the competition.

Jessica Elizabeth Bibby top scored in a real team effort for the Australian side, for whom 10 players found the basket.

Elizaveta Rusakova's 10 points was the best their Russian opponents could manage in response, although Anastasia Anderson's 10 assists was an impressive contribution.

Day 3 Boxscores

Baltiyskaya Zwezda vs Canberra Capitals  36-59
WCBA All Stars China vs TEO  79-73
