When Team USA men's basketball next takes the court in the Olympics on home soil during the 2028 Los Angeles Games, the roster might have a very different look.
The beauty of the Olympics often comes in the form of the unexpected.
The United States held off France 67-66 to win an unprecedented eighth successive women's Olympic basketball gold on Sunday and extend their run of victories at the tournament to 61 games. A'ja Wilson scored a game-high 21 points for the Americans who won the title for the 10th time overall, surviving a buzzer-beating shot from France's Gabby Williams. The hosts needed a three to force overtime but Williams' foot was on three-point line as she let go off the ball, so her shot counted for just two points in a dramatic finale.

This post was seemingly a direct swipe at the country's own sprinter, Noah Lyles, who had questioned why the NBA champions call themselves 'world champions.'
PARIS — The French word for «miracle» would have translated to «disaster» for the U.S. women's basketball team on Sunday.
