It was a showdown anticipated by millions as the stakes soared higher than the tallest tip-off! With both teams vying for a chance at Olympic gold, every second of the game was a rollercoaster of emotions, skills, and jaw-dropping plays.

From the opening tip, the atmosphere crackled with tension.

Fans were treated to an electrifying first half, wherein the U.S. flaunted their talent, attempting to get the upper hand. However, Serbia wasn’t there to make up the numbers. Strong performances from former Gonzaga star Filip Petrusev kept them closely trailing, much to the delight of Serbian supporters who could smell an upset!

Entering the final quarter with the tantalizing score of 87-85, Curry turned-on his shooting prowess, reminding everyone why he’s a household name. The crowd was bouncing as the game intensified into a nail-biter that had viewers on the edge of their seats.

In the end, it was Team USA that locked up a dramatic 95-91 victory, securing their spot in the gold medal game and silencing doubters. This match highlighted the spirit of competition, camaraderie, and the sheer unpredictability of Olympic basketball, reminding us why it captivates so many around the world. Did you know?
