steph finish up the plot with 36 point on 12 - of-19 shot , include nine made tercet , while lebron had a 16 - dot , 12 - recoil , 10 - help ternary - dual , and embiid had 19 power point on 8 - of-11 shot .

Those three fairly much made up Team USA ’s vile attempt , with Durant find some fundamental former bucket but only score nine on the nighttime .

Serbia have a 20 - head nighttime from Bogdan Bogdanovic and 17 point and 11 aid from Jokic , and pour out in 15 III as a squad , but their dig run frigid deep as they overleap a fistful of near flavour , as the latent hostility of the second seemed to get up with their non - asterisk recently in the plot .

The Americanswill now look France on Saturday in a extremely forebode atomic number 79 palm confrontation between the favourite and the master of ceremonies country , while Serbia will dally Germany for the bronze .
