  1. Wrestlingwise, our man Kyle Snyder has won his way into the semifinals at freestyle 97 kg, but our man Frank Molinaro has not at freestyle 65kg.

  2. Team USA picks up bronze medals in the men's marathon and men's volleyball (Americans came back from down, two sets to none!), and Kyle Snider has advanced to the freestyle 97kg wrestling final!

  3. FLINT, REPRESENT!

    Claressa Shields wins women's middle 75 kg boxing gold. Claressa Shields is 21 years old, and she's a two-time boxing gold medalist. TeĆ³filo Stevenson got three of them, but he was 30 when he won his first one for Cuba.

    That's 44 gold medals for Team USA, which will compete yet today for gold in men's freestyle 97 kg wrestling and men's basketball.

  6. Big Cuz's off-the-bench energy up and down the floor and back stirred Team USA from a sleepy start. Serbia led by three late in the first quarter, but now it's 28-20, United States ...

  8. Cousins entered with 3:30 to go in the first quarter, and the United States trailed Serbia, 13-11. He returned to the bench with 6:57 to go in the second, and Team USA led, 33-20.

  9. Big Cuz has nine points and 12 rebounds late in the half, and the United States has outscored Serbia by 20 with him on the floor.

    Two more free throws for Cousins ... he leaves again with 1:35 to go, and Team USA is up 47-27.
