Team USA will face France on Friday in a rematch of the opening game of the group-play stage. Evan Fournier led the way for France in that contest, scoring 28 points on 11-of-22 shooting in an 83-76 victory.
After that disappointing performance, Team USA ran through Iran, the Czech Republic, Spain and Australia to reach the finals. The Americans are now one win away from a fourth straight gold medal, but they know this will be their toughest test to date.
