Team USA vs Serbia game recap

Early on, it looked like this matchup could have gone either way. The United States came out of the gates slow, which allowed Serbia to take an early lead. Following their sluggish start, the star-studded roster eventually managed to find their groove.

Things were neck-and-neck in the first half, but things drastically changed coming out of halftime. The United States took full control of the game, allowing them to coast to a runaway victory in the end.

The most notable performance in this matchup was Phoenix Suns star Kevin Durant. After missing most of the pre-Olympic ramp-up due to a calf injury, the former MVP returned to action against Serbia.

Durant came off the bench in this game and immediately made his presence felt. He went on to finish the game with a team-high 23 points on stellar 8-for-9 shooting.

As for Serbia, they were led by three-time MVP Nikola Jokic. He put together a strong all-around outing, but it was not enough to match the firepower of the United States. Jokic logged 30 minutes of action and finished with 20 points, five rebounds and eight assists.
