USA BASKETBALL HISTORY

U.S. WOMEN’S OLYMPIC TEAM 2024 RESULTS

PARIS, FRANCE • JULY 26-AUGUST 11, 2024

A team that makes history virtually every time it steps onto the court continued to raise the gold standard. The U.S. won an unprecedented eighth Olympic gold medal in a row by winning the closest gold-medal game in women’s history. The U.S. broke the record for most consecutive team gold medals in a traditional sport, eclipsing the USA Basketball Men’s National Team winning the first seven Olympic golds (1936-1968). With the six victo- ries, the U.S. extended its winning streak to 61 games. Individually, 42-year-old Diana Taurasi became the first player in Olympic basketball history to win six gold medals (2004-2024). Taurasi broke a tie with former U.S. teammate Sue Bird, who retired with five golds (2004-2020). The quest began with a 102-76 victory over Japan in a rematch of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics gold-medal game. The veteran inside duo of A’ja Wilson and Breanna Stewart, as they would do throughout the tournament, led the way with Wilson getting 24 points, 13 rebounds and four blocks, while Stewart had 22 points, eight boards and three blocks. Chelsea Gray had 13 assists. Against Belgium, the U.S. clinched first place in its group and a spot in the quarterfinals by virtue of an 87-74 win. Stewart had 26 points and seven rebounds and Wilson added 23 points and 13 rebounds. Wrapping up pool play, Jackie Young hit five 3-pointers en route to 19 points as the U.S. over- came a slow start to drop Germany 87-68. Wilson contributed 14 points and Stewart 13. In the quarterfinals, the U.S. turned up the defense in bouncing Nigeria 88-74. Wilson had her third double-double in four games with 20 points and 11 boards, while Stewart chipped in 13 points. That set up a semifinal showdown with Australia, the country with the second-most Olympic medals with five (three silver and two bronze). The U.S. earned a shot at history with an 85-64 triumph as four players scored in double figures. Stewart had 16 points and six rebounds, Young 14 points, Kahleah Copper 11 points and six boards and Wilson 10 points, eight rebounds and four blocks. Facing host country France for the gold, the U.S. survived a low-scoring, back-and-forth affair to come away with a 67-66 triumph and an eighth gold medal in a row. Stewart gave the U.S. the lead for good at 56-55 on a free throw with 3:45 to go, but there was plenty of drama remaining. While France was a one-woman show as Gabby Williams scored 11 of her team’s final 13 points, the U.S. got contributions from a handful of players and went 7-of-8 from the free-throw line down the stretch while making just two baskets. The final two free throws came from Copper with 2.8 seconds left, putting the U.S. up 67-64, and proved crucial. That is because Williams banked in a shot at the buzzer from the 3-point line, but it was clearly a 2-point attempt as her left foot was squarely on the line after catching a long pass. After a brief discussion and video review, the U.S. had its eighth consecutive gold medal and 10th in 12 trips to the Olympics. Wilson had her fourth double-double with 21 points and 13 rebounds, while Copper and Kelsey Plum each added 12 points and Napheesa Collier 11 boards. Taurasi, in what she says is her final Olympics, finished her career second in U.S. history with 416 points, behind Lisa Leslie’s record 488, and fourth in Olympic history.

USA BASKETBALL HISTORY

U.S. WOMEN’S OLYMPIC TEAM 2020 RESULTS

TOKYO, JAPAN • JULY 23-AUGUST 8, 2021

USA Basketball put together a program ahead of the 2020 Olympics that gave athletes and coaches an opportunity to train at camps and competitions from September 2019 through April 2020. After posting a 17-1 mark against national and international competition, plans were halted due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite the delay, the 2020 U.S. Olympic Women’s Basketball Team traveled to Tokyo and claimed a seventh-straight gold medal, a streak accomplished just once before by a traditional team sport (U.S. Olympic men’s basketball, 1936-1968). Led by Opening Ceremony flag bearer Sue Bird and Diana Taurasi, both of whom own a record five Olympic basketball gold medals, and four- time Olympic gold medalist Sylvia Fowles, the U.S. swept its competition for a perfect 6-0 mark. Behind A’ja Wilson’s and Brittney Griner’s double-doubles, and the formidable presence of Taurasi and Bird, the U.S. opened with an 81-72 win over Nigeria on July 27. It was the 50th consecutive Olympic victory, a streak that began when the Americans won bronze at the 1992 Barce- lona Olympics. In her Olympic debut, Wilson had 19 points and 13 rebounds, while Griner finished with 13 point and 10 boards. Taurasi had 10 first-half points. Though Bird didn’t score, she had 13 assists and four rebounds. The USA defeated Japan 86-69 on July 30 as Wilson posted her second double-double with 20 points and 10 rebounds. In a tight contest throughout, the USA held off France for a 93-82 win on Aug. 2. Wilson had 22 points and seven rebounds. The USA took control early with a 17-0 first quarter run and went on to secure a 79-55 win over Australia in the quarterfinals behind 23 points from Breanna Stewart. Griner led the USA with 15 points and 12 rebounds as the USA secured a double-digit lead in the first quarter and was in control throughout a 79-59 win over Serbia in the Olympic semifinals. Meeting Japan again in the gold medal game, Bird scored the first two points and the U.S. never trailed on its way to the 90-75 victory. Griner scored a game-best 30 points, a U.S. Olympic gold medal game record and the second most ever scored by a U.S. woman at the Olympics. Wilson celebrated her 25th birthday by tallying 19 points, seven rebounds, five assists and a U.S. Olympic women’s single game record five blocks.

USA BASKETBALL HISTORY

U.S. WOMEN’S OLYMPIC TEAM 2016 RESULTS

RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL • AUGUST 5-21, 2016

The 2016 U.S. Olympic Women’s Basketball Team captured the USA’s sixth-straight and eighth-overall Olympic gold medal. Led by a trio of four-time Olympic gold medalists, Sue Bird, Tamika Catchings and Diana Taurasi, the team swept its Olympic competition by a margin of victory of 37.2 points and hit the century mark a record six times in eight games. Orchestrated by head coach Geno Auriemma, the USA’s high-octane offense, which produced 102.1 points a game, masked a dominating defensive effort by the red, white and blue. While the USA shot a blistering 57.7% from the field and hauled in 45.2 rebounds a game, its defense held opponents to 37.1% from the field and allowed them just 27.3 boards per contest. Further, the team out 28.0 assists on 40.5 field goals. In addition to veteran co-captains Bird, Catchings and Taurasi, the U.S. squad featured three-time Olympians Seimone Augustus and Sylvia Fowles; two-time Olympians Tina Charles, Angel McCoughtry, Maya Moore and Lindsay Whalen; as well as three young, up-and-coming stars, Elena Delle Donne, Brittney Griner and Breanna Stewart. The USA beat its five preliminary round opponents by 40.2 points per game, beginning with a 121-56 victory over Senegal. The U.S. also defeated 2014 FIBA World Championship silver medalist Spain 103-63, earned a 110-84 victory over 2015 European champion Serbia, took down 2015 Americas champion Canada 81-51 and closed preliminary play with a 105-62 rout of China. Facing 2015 FIBA Asia gold medalist Japan in quarterfinals, the U.S. earned a lopsided 110-64 victory, then triumphed 86-67 over 2012 Olym- pic silver medalist France in the semifinals, before the USA pulled away to earn gold with a 101-72 victory in a rematch against Spain. In seven of the USA’s eight games Taurasi led or shared as the team’s high scorer and finished the tournament averaging a team-best 15.6 points, while also dishing out 3.3 assists and shooting 57.9% from beyond the arc.
