Hey there, sports fans! Molly Warhol here, and boy, do I have an exciting update from the Paris 2024 Olympics. Team USA just dominated their first basketball game against Serbia, and it was a showstopper. Let's get into the juicy details!
Olympic Styles
2. Slow Start, Strong Finish
The game kicked off with both teams locking down on defense. Kevin Durant, as always, proved why he's a basketball legend, making his first eight shots and racking up 21 points. Talk about starting strong!
"Kevin Durant, is really good at basketball."
3. Kevin Durant and LeBron James Lead the Charge
Kevin Durant was on fire, making his first eight shots and leading the team with 21 points. LeBron James was close behind with 17 points, nearly securing a triple-double with 20 points, nine assists, and eight rebounds. It was the experience of these two that helped guide Team USA to a strong finish.
4. Defense Like It's Jail Ball
The intensity on defense was incredible. They were playing defense like it was jail ball or game point at LA Fitness. If you know, you know—it gets intense! Stephen Curry was setting some great screens, and the defenders were glued to him.

6. The World is Catching Up
Nikola Jokić was looking like the best player in the world for Serbia. It's evident that the world has caught up with the USA in basketball skills. These aren't the days of the Dream Team with Jordan, Bird, and Magic. Booker needs to step up his defense to keep pace.
7. Jason Tatum's Absence
It's crazy to see Jason Tatum not playing, but his teammates are thriving. While it might be disheartening for JT, he's supporting his team to the fullest.
8. Final Blowout
In the end, it was an absolute rout. Team USA turned the slow start into a commanding 110-84 victory over Serbia. The Americans' talent was overwhelming once they found their rhythm.
