The quest for a gold medal will continue for Timberwolves star Kevin Love and the rest of Team USA Basketball on Wednesday. After going undefeated in pool play the States will face off against Australia, and should be the heavy favorite as usual in the quarterfinals.
The USA steamed through group play as was expected of them, with their only close call being a 99-94 match against Lithuania. Australia went 3-2 in their group matches, dropping decisions to Spain and Brazil, but put a beatdown on the host nation and beat the favored Russians to advance. They will be playing the final basketball match of the day so they'll know who will be in the semifinals with them by the time their game is through if they can beat the Aussies.
The game will be at North Greenwich Arena in London at 5:15 p.m. ET. You can see coverage of the game live on NBCOlympics.com as well as NBC's Olympic Basketball channel.
