We watched an incredible match last night, Serbia was in the lead for almost three and a half quarters of it, but the US, led by Steph Curry, managed to come back and win.

Reactions after the game were very divided, and the Denver Nuggets also had something to say, sending a message to their best player, Serbia's Nikola Jokic.

"Put up a fight. Playing for bronze on Saturday," the Nuggets posted alongside Jokic's photo.

Jokic was the second most effective player in the ranks of the Serbian team, scoring 17 points, with 11 assists and five rebounds.
