Canada take on Australia at Stade Pierre-Mauroy on the second day of the group stage of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games in Group A. Greece and Spain complete the group. Canada is regarded as the most dangerous outsider to deny the United States ultimate victory. The Canadians have a golden generation at their disposal, giving them the second-best squad in the world on paper behind the Americans. Familiar names from the NBA include Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Jamal Murray, RJ Barrett and Dillon Brooks. This is the year for Canada to finally shine on the international stage. For the record, the Canadian men's national team has only won one Olympic medal. A silver medal at the 1936 Berlin Olympic Games. In their opening game, Jordi Fernandez's protégés lived up to their billing against Greece with an 86-79 victory.
Australia got their Paris adventure off to a perfect start with an emphatic 92-80 win over Spain. This success was due in particular to the excellent performance of the trio of Jock Landale, Patty Mills and Josh Giddey, who combined for no less than 56 points between them. The Boomers will be aiming for their second Olympic medal, having already won bronze in Tokyo in 2021.
