The U.S. national women's basketball team continues their road to another Olympic gold medal today against Belgium in the 2024 Paris Olympic Games group stage.
Team USA won its group play opener 102-76 Monday in a rematch of the gold medal game from the last Olympics in Tokyo. The U.S. took a 11-point lead by halftime and cruised through the second half for their 56th consecutive Olympic win.
Two-time WNBA MVP A'ja Wilson led the way with 24 points, 13 rebounds, and four assists in the dominant win. Reigning MVP Breanna Stewart had 22 points, eight rebounds, and three assists as well.
Belgium entered the Olympics as Team USA's biggest threat in Group C as FIBA ranks Belgium No. 6 in the world. But they lost the first matchup of group play to Germany 83-69. Emma Meesseman had a game-high 25 points in the loss and Washington Mystics guard Julie Vanloo had 18 points and six assists.
With a win, Team USA gets another step closer to clinching a spot in the knockout stage and another gold medal.
