Nothing is easy, and when you get in your own way, it makes it harder. Team USA had its issues on Saturday as they played the host country France in the gold medal game. 17 turnovers almost derailed the Americans, but behind 15 points from Devin Booker, 15 points by Kevin Durant, and 24 electric points from Stephen Curry, the USA won 98-87 to win their fifth consecutive gold medal.
Kevin Durant solidified his legacy as one of the greatest players in Olympic history by earning his fourth gold medal, setting a new benchmark for male athletes in the sport.
