SPORTS Tuesday, June 28, 2016 East Oregonian Page 3B Basketball Durant, Anthony lead 12-player US Olympic roster By BRIAN MAHONEY Associated Press NEW YORK — The U.S. has selected its 12-player basketball roster, led by Kevin Durant and Carmelo Anthony, with the goal of winning the Americans’ third straight Olympic gold medal. Durant and Anthony are the only players with Olympic experience after a number of stars, including LeBron James, decided to skip Rio. Also chosen Monday for the team were: Golden State’s Klay Thompson, Draymond Green and Harrison Barnes; Toronto’s Kyle Lowry and DeMar DeRozan; Cleveland’s Kyrie Irving; Indiana’s Paul George; Chicago’s Jimmy Butler; Sacramento’s DeMarcus Cousins and the Clippers’ DeAndre Jordan. “We’re very, very positive about the talent level and then the individual strengths of this team,” USA Basketball chairman Jerry Colangelo said. “We’re long, we’re athletic. I think we have some terriic defenders as well as terriic shooters and the versatility is over the top.” Irving was the MVP of the 2014 Basketball World Cup on a U.S. team that included Thompson, AP Photo/Mary Altaffer The U.S. men’s Olympic basketball team player Kevin Durant greets kids who participated in a basketball clinic as he arrives for a news conference Monday, June 27, 2016, in New York. Cousins and DeRozan and easily won gold. The Americans should roll into Rio as the favorites. Yet they won’t look as imposing as expected after the withdrawals of NBA MVP Stephen Curry and All-Stars such as Russell Westbrook, Chris Paul and James Harden. Colangelo said having a national team pool, which he began in 2005, always has the Americans ready for player losses. There were 31 players in this year’s and he had to go deep into it — and eventually even beyond it — to ind 12 as the usual factors that can knock players out were joined by the Zika virus and other concerns in Brazil. “Prior to this year, in the past we dealt with things like free agency, injuries, personal issues that might prevent someone from moving forward. This year it was exacer- bated by circumstances beyond anyone’s control, and that was the reality, the speculation and the circumstance in Rio,” Colangelo said. “So somewhat more chal- lenging, but at the end of the day, and this is important: This is not about who isn’t here, this is about who is here.” That includes Anthony, who becomes the irst U.S. men’s basketball player to appear in four Olympics, and Durant, who set a U.S. record by averaging 19.5 points in London. “Carmelo and Durant serve as both individuals who have been there, done that and won gold medals,” Colangelo said. Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski will coach the Americans for the third and inal time, tying Henry Iba’s team record, and be assisted by Syracuse’s Jim Boeheim, Minne- sota Timberwolves coach Tom Thibodeau and former Oklahoma City assistant Monty Williams. They will lead a team with strong NBA credentials — nine were All-Stars this season — but a little short on international experience after the withdrawals. The toughest competition for the U.S. is likely Spain and Lithuania. The inal and perhaps biggest blow was James, who would have joined Anthony with a fourth selec- tion. He pulled out last week after leading the Cleveland Cavaliers to the NBA championship. The heaviest losses came at the point guard spot, where Curry passed on making his Olympic debut after knee and ankle injuries in the playoffs. Former Olympians Paul and Westbrook pulled out and Washington’s John Wall was injured. What was a position of strength became so depleted that Lowry was added last week even though he wasn’t even a member of the pool. But Colangelo focused on the strength of the team that was selected, adding that he and Krzyze- wski are excited about the challenge in working with new faces. “Their credentials speak for themselves and now it’s just a matter of coach having some time with the group, because there’s so many new people, just getting everyone to blend in,” Colangelo said. The Americans will open training camp in Las Vegas on July 18 and play ive exhibition games before traveling to Rio. Motorsports Tony Stewart wins at Sonoma to snap 84-race drought By JENNA FRYER Associated Press SONOMA, Calif. — For at least one weekend, Smoke was back. Tony Stewart returned to victory lane for the irst time in three years in vintage fashion — refusing to let Denny Hamlin steal a win at Sonoma Raceway away from him on the inal lap Sunday. Now he’s probably got a shot to run for a fourth NASCAR championship in his inal season before retirement. Stewart, mired in an 84-race losing streak dating to 2013, inally won to stop a slide of poor performances, injuries and personal turmoil that has tarnished the end of his career. Stewart had to win a race and crack the top 30 in points to have one last shot at glory before he stepped out of the No. 14 Chevrolet for good. It was a long shot considered the way he has run the last three years, but those who know Stewart knew not to count him out. And anyone who has followed his career now that’s Stewart is best when he’s in a bad mood, and AP Photo/Ben Margot Tony Stewart, center, celebrates after winning the NA- SCAR Sprint Cup Series race Sunday in Sonoma, Calif. Smoke was ornery all weekend in the picturesque wine country. He complained about young drivers, snarked that NASCAR will be without any tough guys once he retires and grumbled he has no fun driving a Cup car anymore. Well, he sure had fun on Sunday. The 45-year-old took the lead on fuel strategy during a caution with 24 laps to go, and had to hold on after another yellow lag stalled the race. The inal restart came with 14 laps remaining and he held off a trio of Toyota drivers for his third career victory at Sonoma. Hamlin made it inter- esting by pouncing on a Stewart mistake to snatch the lead away from Stewart in the seventh turn of the inal lap. Stewart grabbed it back in tricky turn 11, where he dove to the inside of Hamlin and as the two raced side-by-side, Stewart pushed Hamlin toward the wall. Stewart got past Hamlin and charged to the check- ered lag with the entire side of his car crumpled and his tires slightly smoking from the contact with Hamlin.
