France will attempt to end its pre-Olympic schedule on a high note against Team Australia on Sunday.

Friday's matchup against Canada was anything but pretty, as Victor Wembanyama managed only 10 points, and Canada's overwhelming scoring presence, even without Jamal Murray, was too much for France to salvage a comeback attempt.

Now, it will have to look ahead to an Australian team with its ups and downs, including a highly competitive 98-92 loss to the U.S. Since that loss, Australia beat Serbia and Puerto Rico to bring its record to 5-2 in exhibition games. Josh Giddey has been a top player for the Boomers after an impressive run at the 2023 FIBA World Championship.

Will either team regain rhythm ahead of the Paris Olympics beginning next week?
