2020 Tokyo Olympics: How to Watch Team USA Women’s Basketball vs. Nigeria Live For Free Online Without Cable

The defending gold medalist USA Women’s basketball team enters Group B play against Nigeria for their first game of the actual tournament. The women’s team is chock-full of superstars, including Sue Bird, Skylar Diggins-Smith, Brittney Griner, Breanna Stewart, Diana Taurasi, and A’ja Wilson. The Americans already throttled Nigeria in exhibition play — can they do it again when it counts?

Because of the time shift, you’ll have to wake up early if you’d like to see the game live. If the US wins, they’ll be in a great position within Group B to advance, with remaining games against France and Japan. Any other result will greatly complicate things for the Americans. The gold medal game is scheduled for Saturday, August 7

If you can remain spoiler-free and don’t mind watching on replay, each game will be replayed several times on various NBC-related channels. Several streaming services offer a free trial to watch on USA and NBC Sports Network, but we recommend fuboTV so you can also get the other channels showing Olympic events.
