Fans want to know when and how to watch the USA basketball gold medal game, where they will be competing against France at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Team USA was down by double digits throughout their semifinal match against Serbia. But several fortunate events and solid play from Steph Curry, LeBron James, and others in the fourth quarter led the team to a 95-91 victory. Team USA is still the favorite heading into the Olympic basketball final, but as the Serbia game is any indication, the gold medal is far from being assured. Here’s when the USA vs France basketball game will air, and what networks and streaming platforms you can use to watch it.
How to watch USA Basketball gold medal game streaming online
The USA basketball gold medal game is scheduled to air on Saturday, August 10 at 12:30 PM PT / 3:30 PM ET during the 2024 Olympic Games. It will be available on USA, the Peacock streaming service, and NBCOlympics.com.
NBC will also broadcast the Olympics basketball final between USA and France, but the network is also responsible for airing other Olympic events during that time. So if you want to watch the entire game uninterrupted, it’s better to watch it through the three channels and platforms mentioned earlier. Regardless of which method you use to watch it, though, expect commercials between breaks.
