Three Cougs in Olympic basketball action today

There are just 8 men's basketball teams still in contention for a gold medal in Rio... And of those 96 players, 3 attended Washington State University.

Klay Thompson of Team USA and Aron Baynes and Brock Motum of Team Australia will all play tomorrow with a shot at the semi-finals on the line.

After looking like they would cruise to the gold medal, the United States has run into some trouble in recent games. They won their first three games in Olympic play by a grand total of 111 points. Their last two? Just six points.
