"However, it’s Anthony who stands out as being the one effective isolation player for the United States in these Olympics. Entering Wednesday’s quarterfinal, Anthony is 8-of-15 in isolation situations and has not turned it over. All other USA players have combined for as many turnovers as made shots (five each) in isolation."
