Spain vs USA Olympics Basketball: This is perhaps the most lucrative match-up in the Quarterfinals as the two titans of the games will clash against each other. The USA has size, speed, shooting, athleticism, and versatility all packed into one and has a squad with a mix of youth and veterans. On the other hand, the Spanish team is mostly made up of veterans who possess savviness and perform their roles well, however, their old legs can also set them behind against a young and athletic team. While Ricky Rubio has been exceptional, the older players have found it difficult to keep it up in the late-game situations which can be an issue against the surging USA Squad. If the Spanish are to win this then they would need more out of their veteran cast and also inject some youth with players like Alex Abrines. This can be an exciting game but the USA sems to have an edge and is likely to move on to the Semi-Finals.

ESP vs USA Dream11 Team| Player Stats
Kevin Durant
PPG: 14.3 RPG: 5.0 APG: 4.3 BPG: 1.3
Durant needs no introduction to basketball fans, he is one of the best scorers to have ever played the game and his resume is too long to put in a short description. Kevin is both athletic and savvy plus has superb handles, which makes him impossible to guard anywhere on the floor. Add elite defense, rebounding, and playmaking to his offense and there is an MVP. Kevin went beast mode against the Czech Republic, compiling 23 points, 8 rebounds, and 6 assists. Durant is a great candidate as the Super-Player in the Dream11 Fantasy scenario.
Ricky Rubio: PPG: 21.3 APG: 7.3 RPG: 3.3
Rubio is the primary ball-handler and the ace of this Spanis team. He can perform well as a floor general and also take over the offense to bolster the output. He can both shoot and finish inside which makes him a primary threat against the USA. Ricky gobbled up 18 points, 9 assists, and 3 rebounds against Slovenia.
Jayson Tatum: PPG: 16.7
The young forward is a natural scorer and his array of moves put his defenders in a bind. He has a superb shooting game as his jab-steps, pull-ups, pump fakes, and fadeaway jumpers are effective against even lengthy defenders. Jayson notched 27 points against the Czech Republic.
Victor Claver
PPG: 8.7 RPG: 5.7
Victor is a versatile Forward who can pop jumpers and also take it the rack. He mainly plays off the ball and also acts as a rebounder and defender for the Spanish squad. Claver had 4 points and 6 rebounds against Slovenia.
Jrue Holiday
PPG: 12.3 RPG: 4.7 APG: 3.0
Jrue is a two-way player who has excellent ball-handling abilities and can score at will. However, it is his pesky defense that makes him a great threat from the perimeter and he may draw up the assignment to lock up Rubio. Holiday had 11 points and 3 rebounds against the Czech Republic
Marc Gasol
PPG: 7.7 APG: 4.3 RPG: 4.3
Marc is a former superstar of the NBA with a ton of experience. He has amazing fundamentals and can perform the role of an inside and mid-range scorer along with being a rebounder and passer. Gasol turned up with 9 points, 8 rebounds, and 4 assists versus Slovenia
Rudy Fernandez: PPG: 6.7 RPG: 4.0
Damian Lillard: PPG: 6.5 RPG: 4.5
Sergi Llull: PPG: 9.5
