Olympic Basketball Bracket 2024: Men's Quarters TV Schedule, Live Stream and Odds

Erik BeastonAug 5, 2024

The eight best teams remaining in men's basketball in the 2024 Olympics will take to the court Tuesday, with the opportunity to cash their tickets to the semifinal round and a chance to play for a medal.

The United States headlines the field, with the top stars from the NBA dominating play thus far, but there are other teams looking to leave a lasting impression on these games, too.

Canada, like their neighbors to the south, went unbeaten in group play on the strength of RJ Barrett, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, and Dillon Brooks.

Also unbeaten is Germany, led by Dennis Schroder, Johannes Thiemann, Franz Wagner, and Daniel Theis.

Those three teams will look to keep their records unblemished while others, such as France, Brazil, and Serbia, look to upset the proverbial apple cart with a statement victory.

When and where can you find the action and what are the current odds for those games? Find out with this preview of the next round in Olympic action.

The United States men have been flawless in these Olympic games, with more questions surrounding the lineup of athletes head coach Steve Kerr puts on the court on any given night than whether they can beat the opponent in front of them.

The Americans have not yet lost in Olympic competition. Further more, they have blown out opponents, with the closest margin of defeat to this point being their 17-point win over South Sudan.

LeBron James has done LeBron James things, guiding the team as its heart and soul, both on and off the court, and Anthony Edwards came on strong in the final group stage victory over Puerto Rico, delivering and emphatic exclamation point in the form of 26 points.

Kevin Durant has shown up and shown out in his time on the floor, throwing up 23 points on Serbia to lead the team to that victory.

Brazil is a good team, with hard play from Bruno Caboclo and Vitor Benite, and there is a real possibility that it is closer than most expect if the Americans get off to a slow start.

Ultimately, though, the Americans have too much depth.

They have made it to this point, with such dominant play, and neither Steph Curry nor Jayson Tatum have made much of an impact. One of those two will make their presence felt in these games, perhaps as soon as Tuesday's games.

The prospect that any player can go off at any time and fuel the team to a victory is too much for an otherwise outmatched Brazilian team.

Look for the United States to cash their ticket to the semifinals and a date with the winner of Serbia vs. Australia.
