With the group stage of the women's basketball tournament at the Paris Olympics in the books, it's now knockout time. Eight teams have advanced to the quarterfinals, but Team USA is the clear favorite to win the gold medal.
Led by Breanna Stewart and A'ja Wilson, the Americans went undefeated in Group C. In their final pool play game against Germany, Jackie Young came off the bench and scored 19 points, helping the team secure an 87-68 victory.
