Team USA recovered from a shaky start to beat Australia 97-78 and reach their fourth consecutive Olympic gold-medal basketball game at Tokyo 2020.
Australia had led by 15 points in the second quarter before the three-time defending champions launched a 34-point run to overturn the deficit.
That comeback was spearheaded by Kevin Durant and Devin Booker, the latter outscoring Australia single-handedly in the third quarter.
France or Slovenia await in the final.
They play in Thursday’s other semi-final at 12:00 BST for a place in Saturday’s gold medal game.
Durant top-scored for Team USA with 23 points, with Booker adding 20.
