In maybe the most improbable gold medal in Team USA men’s basketball history, the United States defeated France by five on early Saturday morning in the gold medal game in Tokyo. So Jerami Grant comes away with a gold.

The Detroit Pistons’ Jerami Grant has now completed his time as an Olympian. He is the first Piston to get an Olympic medal since Tayshaun Prince in 2008.

Also winning gold on Team USA were Michigan natives JaVale McGee and Draymond Green as well as Khris Middleton, who spent his rookie season with the Pistons.
