In what turned out to be a very exciting game, the USA defeated Spain in the gold medal basketball final, 118-107. In the process, Wake Forest standout Chris Paul secured himself a gold medal and place in olympic history.
Paul contributed 13 points and 5 assists in 24 minutes of play, and the coaches looked to him to control the flow of the game and manage the ball when the game was on the line.
Congratulations to Paul and the whole USA Basketball team on their accomplishment; it was an impressive body of work this Olympic games.
