The silver medalists within the Tokyo Video games, France now faces the US for gold after the the Individuals survived upset-minded Serbia, 95-91 in Thursday’s different semifinal.

Blood stained the neckline of Wembanyama’s jersey after the sport, courtesy of a recent minimize on the left facet of his neck. He did loads of sweating throughout the recreation and was holding again tears when it was throughout.

Blood, sweat and tears. How becoming.

“In our nationwide anthem, we discuss blood,” Wembanyama stated. “We’re keen to spill blood on the court docket. So, it is no massive deal. If it permits us to win gold, I am providing. Take all of it.”

Wembanyama — already the NBA Rookie of the Yr and a No. 1 draft choose — now has a brand new accolade — an Olympic medalist. The one query is whether or not it’s going to be gold or silver, one thing that will likely be decided Saturday evening. The French misplaced to the U.S. within the closing on the Tokyo Video games three years in the past.

Wembanyama’s free throw with 10.9 seconds remaining made it 71-68, Germany by no means received one other shot to tie or take the lead and that was that. France celebrated wildly afterward, for good motive.

“The followers, they made it onerous for me to not cry,” Wembanyama stated. “I thank them.”

The French will likely be solely the third workforce to play for Olympic males’s basketball gold on residence soil. The U.S. did it at Los Angeles in 1984 and at Atlanta in 1996, profitable each instances.

The U.S. (with the golds in 1984 and 1996) and the Soviet Union at Moscow in 1980 (bronze) have been, till now, the one groups to win a medal of any colour in males’s basketball at residence; France will be part of that record Saturday by claiming both gold or silver.

(The exceptions in these years have been the U.S. win in 1996, Australia ending fourth at Sydney in 2000 and Greece putting fifth at Athens in 2004.)

In fact, these groups did not have Wembanyama, who now has an opportunity to win gold.

“This jersey brings to us a special power that we will not discover nowhere else,” he stated. “It is one thing that all of us really feel as patriots. We love our jersey. We love our nation.”

BOSTON — What does Steve Kerr have in opposition to Jayson Tatum? For the second time of the 2024 Paris Olympics, the Celtics star was benched as Group USA took on Serbia.

This time round, Tatum did not play in an exhilarating 95-91 semifinal comeback by Group USA. The Stars and Stripes trailed for almost all of Thursday’s showdown, and for big stretches, it regarded just like the crew may have used a flexible, 6-foot-10 ahead to assist with some perimeter protection.

However Tatum did not play, and was reportedly “furious” as he walked off the floor following the victory. Tatum’s mother wasn’t too comfortable both, firing off her personal put up on X for the primary time since November of 2022.

Serbia was placing on a taking pictures clinic by way of three quarters, hitting over 50 p.c from downtown as they took a 76-63 lead into the ultimate body. (Serbia completed 15-for-39, lacking all 10 of its threes within the fourth quarter.) Regardless of that deadeye taking pictures, Kerr saved going with a rotation that included Anthony Edwards and Devin Booker, neither of whom supplied a lot assistance on the defensive finish. 

Even one among Kerr’s personal gamers in Golden State, Draymond Inexperienced, took exception together with his rotations on Thursday.

— Draymond Inexperienced (@Money23Green) August 8, 2024

And that’s from a man who doesn’t just like the Boston Celtics. In any respect. And most of X felt the identical means about Kerr, who was being handled as an “Enemy of the State” on the social media platform.

Group USA wakened late within the fourth because of superhuman performances from Steph Curry (36 factors), Joel Embiid (19 factors), and LeBron James (16 factors, 12 assists, 10 rebounds). Embiid scored seven straight for Group USA, LeBron hit a game-tying layup, and Curry drained a 3 to take an 87-86 lead. A James dunk put Group USA up by three with lower than two minutes to go — the crew’s largest result in that time. Kevin Durant had 9 factors off the bench, together with a key jumper with 36 seconds left to basically seal the victory for Group USA. 

However the squad’s livid run to clinch a spot in Saturday’s Gold Medal sport was all about Group USA’s absurd stage of expertise taking on and never the teaching from the bench. 

Unusual Olympics for the Boston Celtics

To say it has been an odd Olympics for the three Boston Celtics in Paris can be an understatement. Tatum and Jrue Vacation joined Group USA shortly after the Celtics gained the NBA championship, and needed to cope with some controversy when Derrick White was chosen as an damage alternative over Jaylen Brown. It was an ungainly spot for Tatum and Vacation, who had been comfortable that White was going to hitch them in Paris, but additionally needed to reply questions (or sidestep them) on Brown. 

Then Kerr saved Tatum on the bench for Group USA’s opener in opposition to Serbia. He mentioned after the win that Tatum did not play as a result of Durant was wholesome, however added that he “felt like an fool” for not taking part in the Boston star. Tatum himself referred to as it a “humbling” expertise, however he has each proper to be upset after one other benching on Thursday. 

Tatum has struggled to seek out his position and shot on Group USA this Olympics, although he did have a double-double in a win over Puerto Rico. However he is probably the most versatile defenders on the crew, and do not forget that Tatum was one of many prime scorers on Group USA in 2020 that gained Olympic Gold in Tokyo. 

It is unusual that Kerr and his teaching workers saved Tatum on the bench but once more with the stakes so excessive on Thursday, particularly with Serbia surrounding Nikola Jokic with perimeter shooters for the sport. Perhaps Kerr remains to be bitter that the Celtics trounced the Warriors, 140-88, again in March, although Vacation and White proceed to play vital roles in Paris.

At the very least we’ll get an opportunity to see if Tatum takes the ground on Sunday in opposition to France. And also you higher imagine that this newest benching will give Tatum much more gas when the NBA season ideas off in a number of months.

Artificially manufactured in huge portions, erythritol has no lingering aftertaste, doesn’t spike blood sugar and has much less of a laxative impact than another sugar alcohols. It has about 70% of the sweetness of sugar and is taken into account zero calorie, based on consultants.

Erythritol is the biggest ingredient by weight in lots of “pure” stevia and monk fruit merchandise, Hazen mentioned. It seems to be and tastes like sugar and can be utilized for baking. It is usually a key ingredient in lots of keto-friendly merchandise together with ice cream, Hazen mentioned.

“Should you take a look at diet labels on many keto ice lotions, you’ll see ‘lowering sugar’ or ‘sugar alcohol,’ that are phrases for erythritol,” he advised CNN in an earlier interview.

“You’ll discover a typical pint has someplace between 26 and 45 grams in it.”

Artificially created erythritol, together with its cousins, are thought-about “typically acknowledged as protected,” or GRAS, by the US Meals and Drug Administration.

The brand new examine, revealed Thursday within the journal Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, requested 20 individuals to quick in a single day in preparation for a morning blood draw. Subsequent, they got a drink with both 30 grams of erythritol or 30 grams of sugar. After half-hour, blood was drawn once more.

Ranges of erythritol within the blood rose by a thousandfold after the one drink with that substance, whereas blood sugars rose a small quantity after the drink containing glucose. Nonetheless, it was the change in platelet exercise that was startling, Hazen mentioned.

“We noticed enhanced clotting, utilizing measures of how shortly clots will occlude a vessel or cease blood circulate, which is sort of a mannequin of a coronary heart assault or a stroke,” he mentioned.

Comparable outcomes appeared in a 2023 examine by Hazen and his colleagues wherein eight wholesome volunteers additionally consumed the identical quantity of erythritol and noticed a thousandfold spike of the substance of their blood.

“(Erythritol) remained elevated above the edge essential to set off and heighten clotting danger for the next two to 3 days,” Hazen mentioned on the time.

That examine additionally analyzed the blood of greater than 4,000 folks in the USA and Europe and located that these with the best ranges of erythritol have been twice as prone to expertise a coronary heart assault or stroke.

“What we’re seeing with erythritol is the platelets develop into tremendous responsive: A mere 10% stimulant produces 90% to 100% of a clot formation,” Hazen mentioned.

The research have been finished in wholesome folks with out power illness; nonetheless, the examine’s findings nonetheless apply for the longer term, Hazen mentioned.

“Nonetheless, when you take a look at middle-aged America, the common particular person has two to 3 danger components for coronary heart illness, and 70% of us are going to develop coronary heart illness in our lifetime, so perhaps we must always all be contemplating motion,” he mentioned.

Relating to the danger of heart problems, occasional sugar-sweetened treats in small quantities could also be preferable to consuming drinks and meals sweetened with the sugar alcohols, he mentioned. That’s very true for anybody at highest danger for clotting, coronary heart assault and stroke — reminiscent of these with present cardiac illness or diabetes.

“Heart problems builds over time, and coronary heart illness is the main explanation for dying globally,” he mentioned. “We want to verify the meals we eat aren’t hidden contributors.”

Aug. 8, 0224 –There’s extra proof that the unreal sweetener erythritol is linked to an elevated danger of blood clots, which might result in issues together with your coronary heart and blood vessels, like coronary heart assaults or strokes.

Erythritol is commonly utilized in keto eating regimen merchandise and others searching for to restrict energy and carbohydrates. It’s thought-about a sugar alcohol that may be produced by fermenting corn. And whereas it could happen naturally in fruit and veggies or be made in small quantities by our personal our bodies, the unreal additions to meals and drinks may be considerably better than quantities naturally present in produce.

The brand new findings, printed Thursday within the journal Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, confirmed that when wholesome folks consumed 30 grams of erythritol, scientists may detect modifications of their blood afterward that confirmed the next blood clot danger. They described 30 grams as “a typical amount.” Individuals who consumed 30 grams of sugar didn’t expertise the identical impact. The research included 10 folks within the erythritol group and 10 folks within the sugar group.

In lots of instances, producers aren’t required to checklist the quantity of sugar alcohols on a product label, though they could voluntarily achieve this, in accordance with the FDA, which advises that customers search for them to be listed on bundle ingredient lists. The federal company says sugar alcohols are discovered in lots of sugar-free and reduced-sugar merchandise, together with baked items, chewing gum, jams and jellies, frosting, sweet, ice cream, and different frozen desserts.

These newest findings construct upon earlier analysis from most of the identical Cleveland Clinic workforce members that was printed final 12 months in Nature Medication. That analysis linked elevated erythritol blood ranges to the next danger of issues with the guts and blood vessels in a bunch of 4,000 folks. The sooner research additionally demonstrated a hyperlink between erythritol and blood clotting, and confirmed that when folks drank a beverage artificially sweetened with a standard quantity of erythritol, modifications of their blood may persist for days afterward that might enhance the danger of blood clots.

“{Many professional} societies and clinicians routinely suggest that individuals at excessive cardiovascular danger – these with weight problems, diabetes or metabolic syndrome – eat meals that include sugar substitutes quite than sugar,” researcher Stanley Hazen, MD, PhD, a Cleveland Clinic heart specialist, mentioned in a assertion. “These findings underscore the significance of additional long-term scientific research to evaluate the cardiovascular security of erythritol and different sugar substitutes.”

Sugar alcohols are presently thought-about protected by the FDA, however the company cautions that “some folks might have a specific sensitivity or opposed response to any meals substance. Speak together with your well being care skilled in case you are involved a few adverse meals response.”

The president of the trade group Calorie Management Council mentioned that these findings ought to be interpreted with warning because of the method the research was designed, together with involving a small variety of folks researched and the way a lot erythritol was used.

“Customers must depend on science, and for 30 years, science has proven that erythritol is a confirmed protected and efficient alternative for sugar and calorie discount,” the council’s president, Carla Saunders, advised CBS Information.

The Cleveland Clinic workforce wrote that their “findings recommend that dialogue of whether or not erythritol ought to be reevaluated as a meals additive with the Usually Acknowledged as Protected designation is warranted.”
