Team USA Basketball Olympic Schedule: How to Watch on TV and Online
Kevin Durant could become only the second man in the history of Olympic basketball to win three gold medals this year, equaling a record held by Carmelo Anthony.
The two-time NBA champion was part of Team USA when they won the gold medal at the London Olympics in 2012 and defended its title in Rio de Janeiro four years later.
Should Team USA make it four Olympic golds in a row at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics this month, Durant would match Anthony's record of three gold medals—the latter also a took bronze medal from the 2004 Games in Athens.
With a gold medal, Team USA would become the first team to win gold at four consecutive Olympic Games since it won seven in a row from the Berlin Olympics in 1936, when basketball made its Olympic debut, through to the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City.
Team USA opens its Olympic campaign on July 25 against France, before facing Iran three days later and the Czech Republic on July 31 in the final Group A game.
