The United States men's national basketball team won the gold medal at the 2010 FIBA World Championship. The team was an entirely rebuilt squad without a single member from its 2008 Olympic gold-medal team.[1] The 2010 team relied heavily on a small lineup to win its first World Championship since 1994.[2][3] They were led by 21-year-old Kevin Durant, who was the tournament's most valuable player. The U.S. automatically qualified for the 2012 Olympics in London, and overtook Argentina for the No. 1 world ranking.[4]
