Olympics basketball schedule today: Times, TV channels, scores for Paris 2024 Saturday games

The Olympians are set to hit the hardwood.

Basketball at the 2024 Paris Olympics begins this weekend, with four men’s games opening the docket on Saturday, July 27; the women’s competition begins on Sunday, July 28.

Saturday’s opening slate of games carries plenty of intrigue. Australia, coming off a bronze medal at the Tokyo Olympics, will battle perennial international power Spain in the opening game. That afternoon, Group A play continues with upstart Canada — led by its dynamic backcourt of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Jamal Murray — taking on Giannis Antetokounmpo and Greece.

In between, Group B kicks off with Germany taking on Japan. The Germans won the 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup and gave Team USA a scare in the pre-Olympic exhibition slate.

Victor Wembanyama, Rudy Gobert and France — the host team and one of the squads poised to challenge Team USA for the gold medal — open up play Saturday morning against Brazil, rounding out Group B.

There are plenty of ways to watch Saturday’s quartet of games. The Sporting News has you covered with everything that you need to know in order to tune in, including TV and live stream options.
