The matchups are set for men's basketball quarterfinals at the 2024 Paris Olympics, as the 12-team field vying for medals is down to eight.
The knockout rounds are set to take place on Tuesday, August 6.
After breezing through Group C, Team USA will take on Brazil, which punched its ticket to the next round as the top-ranked third-place team. France, which looked vulnerable in group play, will take on upset-minded Canada, which won all three of its games in Group A.
Elsewhere, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Greece advanced on point differential, setting the stage for a matchup with Germany. And Nikola Jokic will lead Serbia into action against Australia.
Japan, Puerto Rico, South Sudan, and Spain were all eliminated in the group phase.
Here is everything that you need to know about the upcoming Olympic basketball schedule, as the men's tournament shifts into the knockout rounds.
Are there Olympic basketball games today?
For the second consecutive day, there are no men's basketball games at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
This hiatus occurs as teams turn the page from the group stage to knockout rounds. Eight teams advanced to the quarterfinals, with four teams having been eliminated.
The teams that advanced are listed in alphabetical order below:
- Australia
- Brazil
- Canada
- France
- Germany
- Greece
- Serbia
- USA
When is the next Olympic basketball game?
The men's tournament resumes with a fury, as four quarterfinal bouts are slated for Tuesday, August 6.
These are all elimination games, as the tournament is now following a classic, single-elimination format.
The matchups are determined by a random draw, with two caveats: The top two teams were placed on opposite sides of the bracket, and teams from the same group cannot play one another in the quarterfinals.
