On the 1st (Korean time), they defeated South Sudan by 103-86 and 17 points in the second Group C qualifying round for the 2024 Paris Olympics men's basketball at the Lille Pierre-Moroy Stadium in France.
Six players, including Bam Adebayo (18 points, 7 rebounds), Kevin Durant (14 points), LeBron James (12 points, 7 rebounds), Anthony Edwards (13 points), and Devin Booker (10 points), scored double digits.
