The rise of Yugoslavian Team serendipitously coincided with the labor dispute that led to a lockout resulting in none of the NBA players become part of the USA National Basketball team. The team was just a group of amateurs and overseas professionals who were put together in just three weeks. The USA team still performed admirably under the circumstances.
In league stage match, the USA had a minor 2 point loss against Lithuania(84-82). But this misfortune continued in the semifinal against their arch enemy Russia(66-64) in a tight match as the team with a differential of 2 points in semifinals. Yugoslavia went on crushing Russia in the final and won the first position.
