Father Time might be undefeated, but don’t tell Kevin Durant and LeBron James.

The two all-time greats put on performances for the ages against Nikola Jokic and Serbia to open Team USA’s quest for a fifth Olympic gold medal in a row on Sunday in France with a 110-84 win.

Durant hit all eight shot attempts, including five three-point makes in the first half and James connected on 5-of-5 to put the U.S. up by nine at halftime against Serbia.
