Team USA cruises to win over Brazil, advances to semifinals at Paris Olympics

The men’s USA Basketball team cruised to a 122-87 victory over Brazil in the quarterfinals of the Paris Olympics on Tuesday, their most comfortable win of the summer so far.

Devin Booker got Team USA on the board by doing what he’s done all tournament: the hard stuff. He was there to recover Jrue Holiday’s miss before pump faking and putting it off the glass for two. He added a 3 falling down to cap off a 16-6 start for the Americans, who were connected to start letting their offense follow their suffocating defense. Booker added a four-point play before sitting down for the first time.
