Where to watch Team USA vs Japan 2024 Paris Olympics Women's Basketball game? TV details, streaming options and more (July 29)

The USA's women's basketball team will square off against Japan in its first game of the 2024 Paris Olympics on Monday. Team USA is gunning to win its 10th gold medal at the Summer Games and Cheryl Reeve's group is heavily favored to achieve its goal.

Team USA has a star-studded roster with players who boast the potential to win games single-handedly. A'ja Wilson, who is competing in her second Olympic Games, is arguably the best women's basketball player in the world.

Seasoned stars Breanna Stewart and Diana Taurasi will bring in the experience of featuring in the quadrennial competition multiple times during their glittering careers.

Team USA would want to start the campaign with a resounding victory and deliver a strong statement to the competition.

On the flipside, Japan doesn't have the luxury of superstar caliber players like Team USA. Having said that, the country surprised the basketball fraternity in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics by going all the way to the gold medal game. Japan bagged the silver medal after the country suffered a 75-90 defeat against Team USA in the final.

Japan could prove to be a good test for Cheryl Reeve's team. Team USA hasn't played a ton of games with the current group of players in the lead up to the Paris Olympics. The team's camaraderie and chemistry would be tested against Japan.
