Team USA dominated Australia 85-64 in a semifinal on Friday, just two days after they defeated Nigeria 88-74 in the quarterfinals. The Americans hold a perfect 5-0 record, winning each game by at least 13 points, with their closest game being an 87-74 victory over Belgium in the group stage.
In the game against Australia on Friday, Team USA displayed a balanced performance, shooting 50.0% (34 of 68) from the field, including 41.2% (7 of 17) from three-point range. The team excelled at the free-throw line, making 90.9% (10 of 11) of their attempts, and out-rebounded Australia by 12, compensating for their one additional turnover.
France needed overtime to overcome a resilient Belgium, winning their semifinal 81-75. After convincingly defeating Canada and Nigeria by identical scores of 75-54 in their first two group games, France lost to Australia 79-72, before bouncing back with an 84-71 win over Germany in the quarterfinals.
