The 2016 Summer Olympics have come and gone, and for the third consecutive time the USA Men’s Basketball Team took home the gold medal, defeating rival Spain in the semi-final game and Serbia in the gold medal game.
Spain, who was once again led by former Los Angeles Lakers great Pau Gasol, won the bronze medal in the tournament. Recently acquired Lakers point guard Jose Calderon was a member of the the Spanish team for the fourth consecutive Olympics and for the third consecutive time he received a medal.
The 34-year-old did not receive much playing time, as he was behind Sergio Rodriguez, Ricky Rubio and Sergio Llull on the depth chart.
