Behind the offensive firepower of Patty Mills (19 points), Australia then defeated Argentina (97–59) to advance to the semi finals. There, they would record their only loss for the tournament, to a star studded US team (97–78) which featured Kevin Durant (23 points), Devin Booker (20 points) and Jayson Tatum (11 points). Mills (20 points, 5 rebounds and 8 assists) was again the top scorer for Australia. This set up a game against Slovenia for the bronze medal, where Luka Doncic (22 points, 8 rebounds, and 7 assists) and Mills (42 points, 3 rebounds, and 9 assists) led their respective countries in scoring, with Mills and the Boomers winning the bronze medal (107-93) and making history by securing the Boomers first Olympic medal. Joe Ingles (16 points and 9 rebounds), Jock Landale (14 points and 5 rebounds) and Thybulle (11 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 steals) were also key contributors in the medal winning game.
