Josh Giddey was emotional after Australia's heartbreaking overtime loss to Serbia in the Olympic quarter-finals, where they squandered a 24-point lead, ultimately losing 95-90. Giddey expressed his disappointment, particularly for veteran Patty Mills, who is likely playing in his final Olympics. Despite his strong performance, scoring 25 points, Giddey lamented his team's high turnover rate, which significantly impacted their chances. Mills praised the competitive spirit of Serbia, acknowledging the tough nature of Olympic basketball. Giddey's struggles during the group stage raised concerns about his readiness as a point guard for the Chicago Bulls, especially with inconsistent energy and execution. Moving forward, Giddey aims to use this experience constructively as he prepares for the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles.
