Team USA to Face Serbia in Olympic Semifinal

Team USA men's basketball team secured a semifinal spot against Serbia after dominating Brazil with a 122-87 victory in the quarterfinals. LeBron James, who contributed 12 points and nine assists, left the game in the third quarter due to a facial injury caused by an inadvertent elbow from Brazil’s Georginho De Paula but assured fans he was okay after receiving four stitches. Joel Embiid, who did not play in the second half due to ankle discomfort, faced boos from French fans for choosing to play for Team USA. Devin Booker led the team with 18 points, while Kevin Durant broke the Olympic record for most points scored in basketball. Team USA, featuring multiple NBA stars and aiming for a fifth consecutive gold medal, will face Nikola Jokic's Serbia next. The semifinal game is scheduled for Thursday at 3 p.m. ET.
