The U.S. got the celebration going just a little early on Sunday, with Kyle Lowry shutting Twitter down with the go-home highlight of the Olympic games.

In seriousness, the last few minutes of the U.S.’ win over Serbia was a nice treat, from a Toronto Raptors perspective, as Lowry and DeMar DeRozan running out the clock to secure the gold medal. The Olympics are pretty strict about highlight/photo/video posting, but here’s what we were able to round up of the post-game from social media. (I’m sure the best stuff won’t be made public, except for maybe on Draymond Green’s snapchat.)
