Canada vs Australia prediction in 2024 Paris Olympics

Australia will be tough to beat if it continues its hot shooting. It went 12-for-24 from deep in its win over Spain on Saturday.

But Canada has two elite perimeter defenders in Dort and Dillon Brooks. And let’s not forget about Gilgeous-Alexander, a trusted closer who’s easily the best player in this matchup.

Prediction: Canada 89, Australia 87
