The United States remained at the top of Group E Tuesday with a thrilling 93-92 overtime win over Turkey.
The drama reached a peak with 12.3 seconds to go in regulation, when Turkey’s Ersan Ilyasova tipped in the go-ahead basket.
At the end of Team USA’s next frantic possession, Jayson Tatum launched a long shot at the buzzer, drawing a foul. After a review, the officials determined the foul was made in time, and Tatum went to the line for three free throws with the United States down by two points.
He made his first.
