US Men's Basketball Targets Fifth Olympic Gold

Team USA's men's basketball squad, led by NBA stars like LeBron James, Stephen Curry, and Kevin Durant, is aiming for its fifth consecutive Olympic gold at the 2024 Paris Games. Despite a strong roster, the team faces unprecedented competition from international teams boasting their own NBA talent, such as Serbia's Nikola Jokic and Greece's Giannis Antetokounmpo. Head coach Steve Kerr has expressed concerns about the team's energy and execution, despite an unbeaten exhibition record. The U.S. team’s journey begins with group stage matches against Serbia, South Sudan, and Puerto Rico. The Americans will need to overcome their aging roster and adjust to international play to maintain their dominance.
