Despite improving to 2-0 during its pre-Olympics basketball slate, Team USA's 98-92 win against Team Australia was anything but perfect.
The Americans had a 15-point lead heading into the fourth quarter, but a late Aussie rally cut the deficit all the way down to just four points. Team USA was able to hold on for a six-point victory behind a balanced offensive attack, as six different players scored at least 10 points.
Anthony Davis led the way with a 17-point, 14-rebound double-double, and Devin Booker contributed 16 points off the bench. Anthony Edwards once again showed why he really may be the team's No. 1 option, scoring 14 points on 5-of-11 shooting.
"That's just who he is," Team USA coach Steve Kerr said of Edwards. "He's a big-time scorer. He gets downhill, he gets to the rim, plays through contact. FIBA is very physical and he's a very physical player. I think for sure he will be one of our leading scorers during this tournament."
Now, Kerr's squad will attempt to carry that momentum into a matchup with Team Serbia, which will lean on three-time NBA MVP Nikola Jokic.
