After a slow start to the game, the United States men's basketball team found its footing and pulled away from Venezuela for a 113-69 victory in its second contest at the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.
The win gave Team USA a 2-0 record, matching Australia as the only undefeated squads remaining in Group A.
Kevin Durant, who led the team with 25 points in the opening win against China, was excellent again, finishing with 16 points while going 5-of-5 from the field.
Anthony Slater of the Mercury News explained how good the forward has been to start the week:
Kevin Durant in seven Olympic quarters: 15-of-19 shooting, 7-of-10 from three, 41 points, 10 assists.
