Team USA Men's Basketball Suffers Second Olympic Loss

BYU Men's Basketball

Following the surprising loss of the Team USA women's team to Azerbaijan, the men's 3x3 basketball team faced a similar fate, being defeated by Poland with a score of 19-17. The US team, consisting of Jimmer Fredette, Canyon Barry, Kareem Maddox, and Dylan Travis, struggled against Poland's aggressive play.

Poland's seven-foot-one player, Adrian Bogucki, proved to be a dominant force inside the paint, leading all scorers with seven points and contributing five rebounds. Despite the efforts of Barry and Travis, who each scored six points for the US team, they were unable to overcome Poland's physicality.

With this loss, the US men's 3x3 basketball team finds itself at the bottom of their pool after suffering two consecutive defeats at the Olympic Games in Paris. The team will need to regroup and refocus in the upcoming matches to improve their standing in the competition.
