US men romp past China 119-62 in Olympic basketball opener (Yahoo Sports)
Kevin Durant looks ready to lead a new group of Americans to the gold-medal podium. Durant picked up right where he left off in the 2012 Olympics with 25 points, and the U.S. men’s basketball team routed China 119-62 on Saturday night in its opening game. The new Golden State Warriors star scored 30 points four years ago in the gold-medal game, when the Americans held off Spain for the championship.
