Snoop in the house
PARIS: Snoop Dogg is in the house at Bercy Arena because, well, of course he is.
Team USA's No.1 supporter has been a constant presence at events in Paris over the last week - with themed outfits to match.
A huge roar went around the area when he flashed on the big screen and he returned the applause with a little shimmy. Icon.

Dream Team in cruise control
PARIS: Team USA is in cruise control against Brazil at Bercy Arena, putting up 63 points for the half to lead by a massive 27.
LeBron James is playing provider, racking up eight assists to go with his 10 points.
The highlight was a perfect inbound pass to Jayson Tatum for an alley-oop with just seconds left in the half.
But this crowd really has it for Joel Embiid - the boos are only getting louder and he seems to be loving it, egging the locals on after his defection to play for America instead of France.
Boxing getting underway soon
Controversial Algerian welterweight Imane Khelif is soon to fight Thai boxer Janjaem Suwannapheng shortly.
We will have three 3-minute rounds.
Khelif was disqualified from an IBF fight last year following a gender test, but is a woman and is allowed to compete at the Olympics.
Both of these fighters are guaranteed a medal.
"I've looked into it too, about her hormones, and I know she's lost to female boxers before, but that was a long time ago," Suwannapheng said before this fight.
"I'm not sure if she's got stronger or if her male hormones have increased. But if we meet again, I'm not afraid because we're evenly matched."

Dream Team rolling early against Brazil
PARIS: The final quarter-final of the day is underway here at Bercy Arena - and it's the hottest ticket in town as the USA takes on Brazil.
The star-studded Americans lead 35-21 in the second quarter, with LeBron James with five assists already as he forms a dynamic partnership with Steph Curry.
Joel Embiid is also being roundly booed every time he touches the ball, is mentioned or shown on the big screen.

He was eligible to represent France (and Cameroon) but chose to play for the USA here.
The locals have not forgiven him.
The media section is absolutely chock-full, with some press members turned away.
Lucky we've been here since the Boomers match started... more than seven hours ago.
