Team USA pulled off an incredible comeback to beat Serbia 95-91, securing a spot in the gold medal game. The game seemed out of reach as the U.S. trailed by 17 points at one point and entered the fourth quarter down by 13.

Steph Curry and LeBron James were the heroes of the night. Curry scored 36 points, just one point shy of breaking Carmelo Anthony's Olympic scoring record for an American. 

Meanwhile, LeBron recorded a triple-double with 16 points, 12 rebounds, and 10 assists. In the fourth quarter, the U.S. turned things around with a 14-2 run.

Joel Embiid contributed with key baskets, bringing the team within striking distance. LeBron tied the game with a tough layup, and Curry's three-pointer gave the U.S. the lead. Curry then sealed the victory with two free throws in the final seconds.


After the game, LeBron praised Serbia but expressed his pride in Team USA’s resilience, saying, "Gotta get it the hard way." The U.S. will now face France in the gold medal game, a rematch of the last Olympic final.
