It's an Olympic year, and that means we get even more high-level basketball to fill in the void between NBA seasons, along with the extended WNBA midseason break. Both the men’s and women’s teams from the United States are heavy favorites to take home the gold medal, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t value in other markets further down the odds board. The action promises to be ele ctric across both competitions, with games beginning on Saturday, July 27 and concluding with the Gold Medal and Bronze Medal games on August 10 and 11 respectively. Will team USA take home gold in both tournaments, or will we seen a massive upset on the world’s biggest stage?''
Here are the odds and my predictions for the upcoming festivities in Paris.
