France vs Canada Prediction, 08/06/24 Olympic Basketball Picks

Cana and France meet Tuesday in the 2024 Summer Olympics in a men’s basketball showdown at Pierre Mauroy Stadium. Here’s a France vs Canada Men's Basketball Prediction. This article will include a France vs Canada Pick.

France Betting Preview

France has the pressure of the home country on them and a loss here would be very disappointing for them. France won the first two games of the tournament, but in the last game against Germany, they really struggled. The offense scored 71 points, but the defense was awful, giving up 85 points, and that led to the 14-point defeat.  Victor Wembanyama had a strong game, putting up 14 points and 12 rebounds. Evan Fournier also put up 10 points while hitting 2 of his 3 shots from deep. Isaïa Cordinier putting up 10 points while hitting 4 of 7 shots from deep. In this game, they are going to need to get more of the bench production. The defense is also going to need to take a lot more stops. 

Canada Betting Preview

What an elite start to the Olympics for the Canada men’s basketball team, as they have won all three of the games to start the tournament. In the last game against Spain, Canada scored 88 points, and they ended up winning by three points. They were down heading into the 4th quarter, but they outscored Spain 29-24 and that was enough for the victory. As a team, Canada shot 52.5 percent from the field and 33.3 percent from behind the three-point line. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander also put up 20 points and only hit 1 of his 4 shots from deep. RJ Barrett also put up 16 points. Andrew Nembhard came off the bench and put up 18 points while hitting 2 of his 3 three shots from behind the three point line.
