In anything but a surprise, Team USA Men’s Basketball danced through their first test of the 2016 Rio Olympics, 119-62 over China.

They even went as far as to cover the ridiculous 48 point spread providing obsessed gamblers all over the world who back ‘Merica with a smile.

Kevin Durant led the way with 26 points. Three others scored in double figures: Demarcus Cousins adding 17, Paul George with 15, and Kyrie Irving pouring in 12.

USA shot an absurd 51.4 percent from the floor while also knocking down 10 three-pointers and going 33-of-45 from the free-throw line.

China was outrebounded by a final tally of 50-31. Only one player from China scored in double figures.

Team USA will be back in action on Monday night to take on Venezuela.
