It’s just about win-or-go-home time in basketball at the Olympics.
The men’s and women’s quarterfinal brackets are set, with the men set to begin the knockout round Tuesday.
The marquee matchups are Canada vs. France and USA vs. Brazil. The North American rivals are on different sides of the bracket, so they wouldn’t meet until the final, but there are two steps to go before that possibility.
The Sporting News has you covered with everything that you need to know in order to tune in, including TV and live stream options.
