Olympics Men’s Basketball Open Thread: USA vs. Serbia

The 2024 Paris Olympics are officially here! That means LeBron James, Stephen Curry and a host of other NBA stars from the U.S. are ready to start their pursuit of the country’s fifth straight Olympic Gold Medal in Men’s Basketball.

That mission starts today with an opening group-stage matchup against Serbia, led by three-time NBA MVP Nikola Jokic and NBA mainstay Bogdan Bogdanovic of the Atlanta Hawks. The U.S. and Serbia are competing in Group C, alongside South Sudan and Puerto Rico.

While it’s an early weekend morning here in the States, the power of time zones make it so the game is about ready to tip off.
