After a comeback win for the ages against Serbia on Thursday, the U.S. team is now in contention for the gold medal. Now the only obstacle between the Americans and Olympic glory is a French team with star power and NBA talent.
After trailing by 13 points in the first three quarters of the semifinal match, Team USA fought back in the final quarter and avoided a shocking upset. Stephen Curry was the top scorer with 36 points and LeBron James posted a triple-double with 16 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists in the 95-91 victory over Serbia.
France had a tough fight in the semifinals, beating Germany in front of their home crowd. Guerschon Yabusele led the way with 17 points and seven rebounds, and Victor Wembanyama impressed with 11 points, seven rebounds, four assists and three blocks.
