USA vs Brazil Prediction & Picks - Men's Olympic Tournament

 by Lou Aguila | in Basketball Picks

After sweeping the preliminary stages, Team USA is locked in a win-or-go-home battle with Brazil in the quarterfinals of the men's basketball competition at the 2024 Paris Olympics. The United States men's basketball team entered this tournament for one goal and one goal only, and that is to win the gold medal, restoring their domination in the world of basketball. So far so good for the Americans, who routed their first three opponents by an average winning margin of 21.3 points. On the other hand, Brazil made it to the last eight by being one of the two best third-place finisher along with Greece in group play. The South Americans punched their tickets into the knockout stages by defeating Japan 102-84 in their final preliminary match. Brazil is also searching for their first medal in men's basketball since winning bronze at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics.

Our USA vs Brazil Prediction

Although Team USA did not cover the -35.5-point spread in their last game against Puerto Rico, I am pretty sure the Americans decided not to exert maximum effort in their final group game, knowing that they already had the No.1 seed in the knockout stages in the bag. Against Brazil, expect the Americans to come out of the gates aggressively as they look to build a commanding lead against Brazil as early as possible. In the end, I predict team USA to cruise to a comfortable 30+ win, punching their ticket into the semis. Our betting prediction for Team USA vs. Brazil: Bet on USA to cover a -27.0 spread, -115, at Caesars Sportsbook.

Prediction:

 

USA will cover -27.0 spread.

USA vs Brazil - Other Interesting Picks

James will go UNDER 27.5 on points + rebounds + assists.

Odds +100

LeBron James will stuff the stats sheet again in this quarterfinal matchup with Brazil. The Lakers star has been an all-around virtuoso in the tourney, averaging 14.3 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 7.3 assists per game in three games. Brazil doesn't have a player big and agile enough to contain King James at age 40. However, a prop of 27.5 points on combined points, rebounds, and assists may be a bit far out of reach for James, given the fact that the USA is stacked with talent who can also score, grab boards and facilitate. Our betting prediction: James will go UNDER 27.5 on points + rebounds + assists, -130, at DraftKings.

Steph Curry Over 2.5 3-Points

Odds -145

Stephen Curry is going to a good night shooting beyond the three-point line against Brazil, and here's why. South Sudan's length proved to be a problem for Curry, who went 0-for-6 in that game. He came back draining two treys against Puerto Rico, but we still didn't see a Steph Curry showtime from the three-point area yet. That spectacle could take place against Brazil as the Americans will look for him more to destroy the Brazil's interior defense and space out the floor for their slashers. Our betting prediction for Team USA vs Brazil: Steph Curry Over 2.5 3-Points, -145, at DraftKings.
