On Wednesday, the USA Basketball women's national 3x3 team won the Gold Medal after defeating the Russian Olympic Committee, 18-15. China won the bronze medal match, 16-14 against France.
It gets better for Washington Mystics fans, because 2014 first round pick Stefanie Dolson scored 7 points (remember, points are scored differently in 3x3 than traditional basketball) and grabbed 9 rebounds in the championship. In addition, the coach and advisor of Team USA is none other than Duke women’s basketball head coach Kara Lawson, who played in 2014 and 15 with Dolson! She would also go on to be the Wizards’ color analyst for two seasons.
