There has never been an Olympic dynasty quite like the US women's basketball team, which seeks a sixth consecutive gold medal in Rio to complete two decades of global domination. The American women are on a 41-game win streak, having made five unbeaten runs in a row to gold since settling for bronze at the 1992 Barcelona Games where they dropped a semi-final to the former Soviet Union team. Add in 1984 and 1988 gold medals and the US mark is 55-1 with seven of the past eight Olympic titles.
