Team USA Men’s Basketball finished up their exhibition series of games before the Olympics in Paris at the end of the week.

In one final warmup, the US took on Germany, and just like old times, Lebron James would show his dominance, and set the tone for the United States through the rest of the game, earning another victory.

Team USA would defeat Germany 92-88, going a perfect 5-0. Lebron James led the team in scoring with 20 points, 6 rebounds, and 4 assists. Also contributing to the win was Joel Embiid with 15 points, 8 rebounds, and 6 assists. And Anthony Edwards would come off the bench scoring 11 points in 20 minutes played.

Team USA will begin their quest for Olympic Gold this Friday when Team USA tips off the 5 on 5 Men’s Basketball tourney in Paris on July 28th against Serbia. Serbia, headlined by a familiar foe to players like Lebron James, Stephen Curry, and Anthony Edwards, 3x MVP Nicola Jokic, lost to team USA in their third exhibition game on July 17th in dominating fashion 105-79.
