Boogie and Team USA face Venezuela in their second game of the Olympics at 6:00 pm. You can watch the game on either NBC Sports Network or stream it on olympics.nbcsports.com.
The two teams played in Houston a week ago to end the exhibition games for Team USA before heading to Rio in what was an incredibly ugly game. The US won by 35, but Venezuela - who doesn't have a NBA player on the roster - just tried to make the game as ugly as possible. They constantly fouled the U.S. before they could attempt a fastbreak while USA struggled from the field, missing a ton of open looks. Needless to say Vegas doesn't think that will happen again as USA are currently 49.5 point favorites.
Expect Boogie to have a big game as Venezuela has absolutely no one in the middle that can remotely stop him. Good luck to Team USA as they should easily win again before getting the three toughest games in the preliminary round
