The United States men’s basketball team has won another World Cup gold medal, keeping its remarkable run alive. HS reports that in the history of the tournament, only one other nation has managed a comparable streak.

That benchmark is the Soviet Union, which achieved a similar level of dominance between the 1950s and 1970s. The result underlines how firmly the United States still sits at the top of the sport, even as international competition has grown tougher over time.
