The men's basketball group stage at the Paris Olympics has been played twice, with United States winning 2-0 against Serbia and South Sudan respectively. Durant performed well in both games, especially against Serbia, scoring 21 points on 8-of-8 shooting in the half, and was the absolute core of the United States team and still a big killer for FIBA. After two games, Durant's plus/minus is also as high as +46, the highest in the United States team, and he is in a single bracket.
Including these two games, Durant has also played 24 Olympic games, tied David Robinson in appearances and moved up to third in United States men's basketball history, and the first place is Anthony's 31.
In addition, Durant's Olympic total has reached 472 points, continuing to rank first in United States men's basketball history, and 136 points ahead of second place Anthony. In other words, Durant played 7 fewer games than Anthony, but scored 136 more points than Anthony, which proves that Durant is better than Anthony. Anthony is already FIBA's big killer, but compared with Durant, Anthony can only stand aside, and Durant is the real first person in FIBA.
Durant averaged 19.67 points per game in the Olympics, and his average points per game still ranked first in United States men's basketball history. However, Durant is currently only 0.3 points ahead of second-place Dantley, so Durant still needs to score more points next. Since Durant is the absolute core of the United States team, Durant's next score should not be low, especially in the knockout stage, United States will definitely rely on Durant's score.
Durant's three-point shooting performance at the Olympics was also quite explosive, and even Curry couldn't match it, shooting 81 of 155 from the field, with a three-point shooting rate of 52.3%. Durant's three-point shooting is also the third-highest in Olympic history, behind Oscar Schmidt (103) and Andrew Gates (86).
Of course, James has also performed well in the Olympics, but there is still a gap compared to Durant. James' Olympic total has also exceeded 300 points, second only to Durant and Anthony in United States history. In addition, James has exceeded 100 assists in his Olympic career, ranking fifth all-time, behind Jascovisius (160) (Lithuania), Mathieu Leonis (121) (Lithuania), Tony Kukoc's 112 (Croatia), Ginobili (107) (Argentina), and is expected to rise to second in history after this Olympics.
