Olympics Women’s Basketball: Brazil vs Belarus
After the first three days in the 2016 Rio Olympics women’s basketball competition, the favorites in USA Basketball are clearer than ever. However, one of the interesting things is that none of the other teams have totally separated themselves to the point that they look like medal contenders in the most solid sense. As such, that leaves two teams like Brazil and Belarus winless, but with a chance still to turn things around. On Tuesday, those two teams will do battle in Rio.

Frankly, the host nation of Brazil has seen better days than their first two games in the competition as they’ve been on the wrong end of some bad losses. However, they aren’t a team devoid of talent and all it takes is one win to change momentum for a squad.
Belarus on the other hand has looked scrappy and like a fighter despite not picking up a win just yet. They’ve displayed the type of grit, though, that could make them dangerous if they get rolling.
This game won’t be broadcast live on TV as the Olympics women’s basketball coverage will ultimately be tape delayed. However, you can still catch the live stream of Brazil vs Belarus on Tuesday by going to NBCOlympics.com or the NBC Sports app and logging in with a cable or satellite subscription.
