BBC Sport - Olympics, 2020, Day 13: Red Button - Athletics & Basketball

Men's 110m hurdles final featuring GB's Andrew Pozzi, plus basketball.

USA's world champion Grant Holloway has seen nearly all of his expected rivals fall short, either because of injury or lack of form at the crucial moment, and will start as odds-on favourite. Great Britain's world indoor champion Andrew Pozzi reached the final as a fastest loser. Men's basketball semi-finals where unbeaten Australia, the world’s third-ranked team, have been trying to finish on the Olympic podium since Melbourne 1956 but have yet to make it despite contesting the bronze-medal match four times. They may never have a better chance; the USA lost an Olympic match for the first time since 2004 in their opening game to France and twice in the lead-up to the Olympics, including a 91-83 loss to the Aussies. However, they did show signs of form in their 95-83 quarter-final win. It's France v Slovenia in the other semi-final where Slovenia, for a nation of just two million people, have impressed on their
Olympics debut. Their superstar Luka Doncic, of the Dallas Mavericks, is tournament top scorer and second in rebounds only to his team-mate Mike Tobey. They reached the semis with a 94-70 rout of Germany. France are chasing a first Olympic medal since silver at Sydney 2000.
