Despite trailing by 17 points at one stage, the Americans rallied in the fourth quarter, led by Stephen Curry's outstanding performance, scoring 36 points, including nine three-pointers. LeBron James contributed a triple-double with 16 points, 12 rebounds, and 10 assists, while Joel Embiid added 19 points on 8-11 field goal shooting. The victory sets up a gold medal showdown against France, who previously defeated Germany 73-69 in their semifinal match.
