Summary

Team USA basketball has been running wild in the Olympics, but Charlotte and Amin think the pressure is starting to mount as the quarterfinals start this week. The USA women's basketball team is also on a roll, winning their 58th game in a row. Unstoppable much?! Without Caitlin Clark, the team is winning, but for some reason, people still wish she was on the court for Team USA. South Sudan is still receiving flowers from Amin and everyone around the world. The Team USA basketball team has been doing side quests at the Olympics, being seen practicing and watching other Olympic sports, including watching Noah Lyles win the 100m dash after calling out the NBA last year. Fran Fraschilla, the director of the USA's 3x3 program, joins us to teach us more about 3X3 and why it's difficult for NBA players to participate. Learn more about your ad choices.
