Serbia beats Australia 87-61, plays US for men’s hoops title (Yahoo Sports)
Serbia had a late last look against the U.S. and missed. Milos Teodosic scored 22 points as Serbia, which pushed the star-studded American squad to the final seconds before losing earlier in the Rio Games, moved into the Olympic gold-medal game with a shockingly easy 87-61 semifinal win over Australia on Friday. Stefan Markovic scored 14, Nikola Jokic had 11 rebounds and the Serbs, a squad with a mixture of moxie and muscle, earned another crack at the U.S. on Sunday.
