The USA basketball team continues to dominate its way to another Olympic final. This time, LeBron and his team steamrolled Puerto Rico.

The Caribbean team started the game well, winning the first quarter. However, this only angered their opponents, who crushed them in the second quarter with a score of 39:16. By the end of the third quarter, the lead had grown to 28 points, and the game ended in a decisive blowout.

Minnesota Timberwolves leader Anthony Edwards was the standout on the court, scoring 26 points. Notably, Jayson Tatum also recorded a double-double.
