Why France is a Good Bet Versus USA in the Olympic Gold Medal Game
At first glance, France should have no shot against the United States but Wembanyama is a wildcard that gives France a chance.
Simply put, Wemby is the toughest player to prepare against the NBA, which makes him the toughest player to prepare against at the Olympics.
Not only that, but during the 2024 Paris Olympics France has built the better resume.
The French had to beat the Germans, which ended the United States’ World Championship run in 2023.
More impressively, the French beat Canada, which was loaded at the guard position with players like Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, in the quarterfinals.
France will always be a tough team to beat, no matter what angle you take> A basketball team made of the top players from French LNB Pro A but fueled up with some NBA in the mix.
So, check the props for the game, because that’s where the money is at: USA vs France Olympic Props..

Why USA is a Good Bet Versus France in the Olympic Gold Medal Game
In Thursday’s semifinal game, three time NBA MVP Nikola Jokic and Serbia jumped out to a 16-point lead.
The United States rallied in the second half to end Serbia’s run to the gold medal.
The fact the USA had to rally doesn’t surprise.
The fact that they played so well together too rally does.
It’s rare that a team with so many star players can settle down, take accountability, and then get it done against long odds.
Jokic and his mates had LeBron, Steph, Anthony Edwards and the rest on the ropes.
But the United States is full of champions and it showed.
Expect a tighter Team USA to show up on Saturday in the gold medal game.

Olympic Basketball Gold Medal Game Final Betting Analysis: USA Wins Gold, but Wemby and France Cover
It’s going to be tough for France to upset the United States.
Wemby is a single player against the best in the NBA.
Although he’s great, the U.S. has talent up front, including French citizen Joel Embiid who is playing for the Americans, to handle Wembanyama’s dominance.
But although the U.S. will win gold, they won’t cover the spread.
The running line at this year’s Olympics is that France plays fantastic defense.
The French are a quality squad that relies on defense to force bad shots.
Holding Canada to 71 points and Germany to under 70 speaks of how well the French are playing D.
France’s defense will frustrate LeBron, Curry, and the rest.
It won’t be enough for France to pull off the huge upset win, but it will be enough for France to cover the spread.
Like I said with France, check the props for the game, because that’s where the money is at: USA vs France Olympic Props.
