Since men's basketball became an Olympic sport in 1936, the United States has dominated the rest of the world, winning 16 of the 20 gold medals.
Team USA has also won the last four gold medals and is in the semifinals of the Paris Olympic tournament after rolling through group play and an impressive quarterfinal victory over Brazil. Led by LeBron James, Kevin Durant, and Anthony Edwards, the United States has won every game by at least 17 points. Edwards leads the team in scoring during the Olympics at 16.7 points per game.
Host country France, which won the silver medal at the Tokyo Games in 2021, and Serbia, which took silver in 2016, are looking for their first gold medals in men's basketball. Germany has never medaled in men's basketball.
