The U.S. men's basketball team is winning at the Paris Olympics but not always covering the spread. The Americans beat Puerto Rico 104-83 on Saturday to finish pool play but failed to cover the 36.5-point spread. At the BetMGM online sportsbook, 64% of the money was on Team USA to cover. The team went a perfect 3-0 in pool play but was 1-2 against the spread. The U.S. team will next take on Brazil in the quarterfinals on Tuesday.
