Kevin Durant and LeBron James headline massive performances at the end of the half against Serbia in their first group play game at the Paris Olympics.

Durant ended the half leading all scorers with 21 points shooting 8-8 from the field and 5-5 from behind the arc. He hasn't missed a beat after not playing in any of the five exhibition games due to a lingering calf injury.

While James also did not miss a shot, shooting 5-5 from the field with 12 points, five assists, and three rebounds.  James and Durant combined for 33 of the United States 58 points. Two of the oldest players in United States Olympian history leading the surge.

Serbia poses as one of the stronger teams in the tournament; however, the U.S. defeated them in exhibition play by 20+ points and now take a lead into the half led by historic performances thus far by James and Durant.
