2024 Olympics basketball futures odds, best bets: Proven expert reveals picks to win, teams to avoid

The 2024 Paris Olympics already have events rolling in several sports and men’s basketball gets underway on Saturday. The women’s side begins one day later. All group phase games will be played at Pierre Mauroy Stadium, located in Lille, more than two hours from the capital city. During the knockout rounds, the basketball competition moves to the Bercy Arena in Paris. Team USA is the -400 favorite (risk $400 to win $100) to win gold on the men’s side. Canada is +1000, France and Serbia are +1500 and Germany is +2100 in the latest 2024 Olympics men’s basketball odds.

USA Women are -2400 to win the gold with France (+2200), Australia (+2900), Spain (+3100) and Belgium (+3400) next on the Olympics odds board for women’s basketball. Before locking in any 2024 Summer Olympics basketball futures or predictions, you need to see what SportsLine Olympic insider Mike Tierney has to say.

A national sportswriter whose work appears in The New York Times and Los Angeles Times, Tierney has covered nine Olympic Games in person. At Rio in 2016, Tierney profited big-time. He told readers to bet over on Team USA’s gold medal count (41.5) and over on Team USA’s overall medal count (102.5). The result? 46 golds, 121 medals and two easy cashes. Then, at the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, Tierney hit two of his three predictions: Germany (+200) to win the most gold medals and the United States winning under 10.5 gold medals (+110).

Now, Tierney has broken down the 2024 Olympics from every possible angle and revealed which countries you should back on the medal table and which ones you should completely avoid. You can visit SportsLine now to see his 2024 Summer Olympics basketball picks

Top 2024 Summer Olympics basketball futures predictions 

Tierney is fading Team USA men’s basketball as the betting favorite. They are the top team in the pool but they haven’t looked too sharp leading up to the Olympics. This group hasn’t played with each other before the exhibitions and it’s showing on the floor. The closest team that can compete with them in terms of NBA talent is Canada, which has 11 players. Regardless, chemistry seems to be a problem heading into the Summer Olympics for the United States.

Even though they were heavily favored in every exhibition matchup, they won three games by single digits. Another underrated factor is the health of Kevin Durant, who is dealing with a calf injury, who didn’t play in the exhibitions. He leads Team USA in all-time total points (435), field goals (146) and 3-point field goals (74). See the rest of his picks here.
