Even with 6-foot, 7-inch center Chad Givens, the La Canada High basketball team was a long-shot to survive the first weekend of the L. A. Games. Then when Givens went down with a sprained ankle, the Spartans’ chances looked even dimmer.

La Canada opened with a 41-34 win over Jefferson on Saturday.
