We enter the month of August, and the Summer Olympics continue on Thursday. Today, the women’s basketball team is in action as they take on Belgium. The women’s team got off to a fast start in their first group stage game against Japan, cruising to a 102-76 victory. The women’s team will continue their group play on Thursday. Below is my best bet for the Summer Olympics and the women’s basketball game between Belgium and the USA.

Summer Olympics Best Bet For Thursday (August 1st): WOMen’s Basketball: BELGIUM vs. USA 2h2n6e
Start Time – 3:00 pm EST
As I mentioned above, the USA women’s national team beat Japan in their first group-stage game. They were led by MVP A’Ja Wilson, who scored 24 points and grabbed 12 rebounds.
Team USA will look to continue its dominance as it faces Belgium on Thursday. Belgium is coming off a loss in its first group-stage game against , falling 83-69. These two national teams played a friendly back in February, and the USA pulled off a narrow victory, 81-79.
However, Team USA did not have A’ja Wilson in that friendly matchup, and she is one player who can change a team’s entire outlook. Further, outscored Belgium by nine points from the three-point line and 11 points from the free throw line in the first game.
If Team USA can knock down their three-point and create second-chance opportunities, it could become another route for Team USA vs. Belgium. I also do like Wilson to have a big game on the boards.
Best Bet: USA TT Over 94.5 and A’Ja Wilson Over 10.5 Rebounds
