Referees 'wanted the US to lose' Olympic 3x3 tournament, star player Hailey Van Lith says

The United States failed to go back-to-back in the women's 3x3 basketball tournament, and one of the star players is blaming the referees.

The Americans dropped their semifinal matchup against Spain, who eventually lost to Germany in the gold medal game; the USA earned bronze by defeating Canada.

But gold for America in basketball is almost a given: In normal basketball, the men have won 16 golds in 20 appearances, while the women are 9-for-12 (one silver, one bronze).
