BEIJING (AP) -- The U.S. men's basketball team has defeated Greece 92-69, remaining unbeaten in its quest for Olympic gold.

Kobe Bryant and Chris Bosh each scored 18 points Thursday night for the United States, which improved to 3-0 and moves on to a matchup of Group B unbeatens against world champion Spain on Saturday night. Dwyane Wade added 17 points and LeBron James finished with 13.

Theo Papaloukas scored 15 points for Greece, which upset the United States 101-95 two years ago in the world championship but found a much tougher defensive club this time.
