Spain vs Canada FIBA World Cup 2023: Date, time, where to watch, live stream details, and more

Spain vs Canada is set to be a pivotal battle in the second round of the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2023 on Sunday, Sept. 3. As a spot in the quarterfinals hangs in the balance, expect both teams to play with a lot of determination and toughness.

Both teams are aiming for a comeback following disappointing losses in their previous game. Spain experienced a surprise 74-69 defeat to Latvia, while Canada also suffered an unexpected 69-65 loss to Brazil.

Spain had an impressive 11-game winning streak in the World Cup before their defeat to Latvia. Losing to Canada would end their streak of not having back-to-back losses in the tournament since 1990.

Canada's recent defeat to Brazil is also unusual, as they managed only 65 points, their lowest-scoring game since 2010 when they put up 61 points against New Zealand.

Team Canada features seven NBA players. They are Shai Gilgeous-Alexander from the OKC Thunder, Luguentz Dort and RJ Barrett of the New York Knicks, Dillon Brooks of the Houston Rockets, Kelly Olynyk of the Utah Jazz, Dwight Powell of the Dallas Mavericks and Nickeil Alexander-Walker of the Minnesota Timberwolves.

With such a strong lineup of star players, it's entirely plausible to consider Canada as a strong contender in this game.
