Olympic women's basketball bracket: Standings, what to know, what's next at Paris Olympics
The Olympic women's basketball quarterfinals are happening today. The United States went undefeated in group play, and thus, all eyes are on them to win three more games and claim their eighth straight gold medal.
Standing in their way tonight will be Nigeria, who may have finished third place in their group, but still managed impressive wins over Australia and Canada to become the first African team ever, male or female, to secure a spot in the Olympic quarterfinals.
The emotions on Nigeria's side will surely be riding high, meaning the United States can either take advantage or falter under their weight. Here's the full bracket for the Olympic women's basketball quarterfinals.
