The United States men's basketball team is set to face off against Lithuania on Saturday morning on NBCSN.
Team U.S.A. is coming off the destruction of Nigeria in their last basketball game in the 2012 Summer Olympics. The United States scored the most points in an Olympic basketball game ever, but likely won't repeat that blowout performance against Lithuania on Saturday morning.
LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, Carmelo Anthony and company will continue their quest for Olympic gold in the Summer Games against a team who has won just one out of their first three games in group play, coming off an 82-74 loss to France. The United States is expected to once again cruise on to another victory in the matchup.
The United States' game against Lithuania begins at 9:30 a.m. ET and can be seen live on the NBC Sports Network.
The game can also be watched live via an online stream at NBCOlympics.com.
