    Team USA Basketball Taunts France With Strong Five-Word Message During Gold Medal Battle

    Team USA and France are battling for a gold medal in the men's basketball event at the 2024 Summer Olympics, and the game has been a fairly close affair so far.

    The score settled in at 49-41 heading into halftime, but Team USA opened the third quarter with an offensive flurry to push their lead up to 14 points early on in the frame.

    With the team rolling, Team USA basketball decided to take the opportunity to rub some salt in France's wounds. They sent out a savage five-word tweet with their offense on fire, and it surely caught the attention of fans everywhere who were tuning in to watch the game.

    Given their lead, and the amount of talent they have at their disposal, it's no surprise that Team USA is feeling confident even though this game isn't over yet.

    Considering how efficient the offense has been as this game has gone on, though, it's safe to say that Team USA is, in fact, cooking like their social media account claims they are.

    Now, they will likely be crossing their fingers and hoping that Team USA can hold on and close out this game so they don't get roasted themselves for making this post.
