The U.S. failed to medal for the second consecutive World Cup.
It's only the seventh time in 38 appearances at the Olympic or World Cup level that an American team did not emerge with gold, silver or bronze.
“The United States hasn't won the World Cup since 2014,” U.S. coach Steve Kerr said.
Another World Cup, another debacle for the Americans.
This tournament marked the first Olympic or World Cup appearance where a U.S. team gave up at least 100 points three different times.
