All-Time USA Men's Olympic Teams

With the Olympic Games being held next summer in London, take a look back through the years at the men’s teams who represented the USA since the first men’s basketball competition was held in 1936.

The USA men have dominated in Olympic basketball, owning a won-loss slate of 122-5, and winning a record 13 gold medals, one silver and two bronze medals.

The only other nations to break into the gold medal ranks are the former Soviet Union with two, while Argentina and Yugoslavia each have one.
