Team USA gets its first win in its debut at the Paris 2024 Olympics at the end of the big game against Nikola Jokic’s Serbia. The game was on the line for a little more than a half, and Serbia had to raise the white flag against the United States and its boundless talent. The final score was 84-110 in favor of the team coached by Steve Kerr, a perhaps harsh score for Serbia, especially in the second half. Team USA shot divinely from behind the arc, going 18\/32 from behind the arc, while Serbia shot an ugly 9\/37 from three. This is probably the most important statistical aspect of the game.<\/p>\n
For the United States, the legendary Kevin Durant, a player who was questionable due to a calf injury, played without any preparation friendlies, the Suns star scored 23 points on 8\/9 from the field, 21 points of which came in the first half, in 8.33 minutes played in the first two periods, shooting 8\/8 from the field and 5\/5 from behind the arc. Also noteworthy was the performance of LeBron James with 21 points, 9 assists and 7 rebounds and Jrue Holiday with 15 points.<\/p>\n
For Serbia, Nikola Jokic’s 20 points with 8 assists and 5 rebounds, Bogdan Bogdanovic’s 14 points with 6 rebounds and Ognjen Dobric’s 13 points were not enough.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
