TORONTO – Canada’s senior men’s basketball team will have an early test leading up to the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Canada Basketball announced the team will face the United States in exhibition play in Las Vegas on July 10 at T-Mobile Arena as part of the USA Basketball Showcase.

The two teams last met in the bronze-medal game of the 2023 FIBA World Cup on Sept. 10 in Manila, Philippines.

Canada came out on top with a 127-118 overtime victory for its first-ever medal on the World Cup stage.

The Americans moved to No. 1 in the FIBA rankings following the tournament, dropping Spain from its perch. Canada, meanwhile, jumped from 15th to sixth.

The Olympics will take place this summer from July 26 to Aug. 11.
