The 2020 Tokyo Olympics did not get off to the best start for Team USA men’s basketball as after dropping a pair of exhibition games, they then lost their first pool play game of the tournament against France.
Led by Kevin Durant though, they were able to bounce back from there and win five straight games to bring home the gold medal for a fourth straight Olympic games.
Included in those five wins were close games against Austalia and France, the first of which was in the semifinals and then the second in the gold medal game.
