I think Galen Rupp will get a medal in the 10K
Olympics: What are Your Predictions?

The USA will probably medal in basketball.
The IOC has banned Russia’s track team. The next step is to confront the broader corruption in the Russian sports system, following an investigation by Canadian lawyer Richard McLaren due in July. If Mr. McLaren’s report confirms allegations that Russian anti-doping officials and security officers covered up their athletes’ positive tests at Sochi 2014, the IOC must expel the entire Russian team from Rio.
The Games will not be diminished by a cheating nation’s absence, as Russia’s leaders have charged. They will be enhanced.
