Team USA cruised past Serbia in its opening matchup of the 2024 Paris Summer Olympics as six players scored in double figures, with Kevin Durant (23 points) and LeBron James (21 points) leading the way. Next up for the Stars and Stripes is South Sudan, which put a scare into the US in a pre-Olympic match in London back on July 20. South Sudan led by as much as 16 and Team USA was able to hold on for a 101-100 win with a huge finish from LeBron James.
The U.S. leads Group C in point differential with their 26-point win over Serbia in the opener, and can all but lock up a spot in the knockout round with a win over South Sudan.
