Basketball at the 2016 Summer Olympics

Men's Tournament

The United States, where the game of basketball first originated, continued its dominance in the men's tournament at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The USA team, led by a star-studded roster that included LeBron James, Stephen Curry, and Kevin Durant, cruised through the preliminary round and the quarterfinals.

In the semifinals, the Americans faced a tough challenge from Spain, which had upset France in the quarterfinals. However, the USA team proved to be too much for Spain, winning by a score of 82-76.

Gold Medal Game

In the gold medal game, the USA faced Serbia, which had upset Australia in the other semifinal. The game was a close contest throughout, but the USA team ultimately prevailed, winning by a score of 96-66.

The gold medal was the USA's third consecutive Olympic gold medal in men's basketball and the country's 15th overall. The USA has now won more gold medals at the Summer Olympics than any other country in basketball.
