Former Marquette star Dwayne Wade scored 10 points as the U.S. basketball team routed Germany 106-57 at the 2008 Olympics.

Neither Wade nor Milwaukee Bucks guard Michael Redd started for the U.S. team in the runaway, but the game was never close.

Redd only hit one-of-nine shots from the floor for two points. Wade hit four-of-six.

Led by LeBron James, the Americans jumped out to a 20-3 lead and were never challenged.

The game didn't mean much, since the U.S. had already qualified for the medal round. Dwight Howard led the United States with 22 points and 10 rebounds.
