Team Canada entered the 2015 FIBA Americas Championship as a dark horse candidate to qualify for the 2016 Summer Olympics, but after stringing together six consecutive wins, they are now heavy favorites to reach their first Olympics since 2000. Celtics center Kelly Olynyk has been a key part of the Canadians' remarkable run, shooting better than 50 percent and leading the team in rebounding.
Canada's only loss was in the opener, 94-87 to tournament favorite Argentina, which was led by Raptors power forward Luis Scola's big double double: 35 points and 13 rebounds. Olynyk pulled down 10 boards in that game, the first of four in which he led the team.
