According to media reports on August 11, in the Olympic men's basketball gold medal game, the US team defeated the French team 98-87. After the game, Obama tweeted: "Last month, before the US men's basketball team went to Paris, I had the chance to meet them. Proud of them for bringing home the gold medal! Pay tribute to the legends James, Curry and Durant."

James, Curry and Durant mentioned by Obama are all famous basketball players in the United States. James has excellent physical fitness and comprehensive basketball skills; Curry is known for his precise three-point shooting ability; Durant is a player with extremely strong scoring ability. They all have important positions and outstanding performances in the US men's basketball team.

In this Olympic men's basketball gold medal game, perhaps the excellent performances of these players helped the US team win, so Obama paid tribute to them. However, the result of a basketball game is a reflection of the team's efforts, and every player has contributed to the victory.
