UPDATE: Team USA defeated Serbia 129-92 to win the FIBA World Cup. Despite early foul trouble, the US had no problems pulling away. Kyrie Irving scored 26 and James Harden 23, with the rest of the scoring divided evenly amongst most of the team. Derrick Rose was irrelevant again.

The Portland Trail Blazers' Nicolas Batum was named to the FIBA All-World-Cup Team after the game, along with Kyrie Irving, Pau Gasol, Kenneth Faried, and Milos Teodosic. Irving was named FIBA MVP.
