Team USA will be back at it again this week, with another opportunity for Tyrese Haliburton to show the world that the Pacers have an absolute superstar playing point guard for them. But many may not realize how they can watch Tyrese Haliburton playing for the national team against countries around the world.

The team is continuing to work through group play, where they need to get another points to get to the next round. They have already won the first game in group play against New Zealand. But who are they playing now and when can you watch it?

Team USA vs Team Greece, August 28th, 8:40 AM, ESPN2

Team USA starts the week off bright and early playing Team Greece at 8:40 AM on Monday (of course this will be much later in the day where they are playing, the Philippines). Team USA has already played Team Greece once, where they won rather comfortably. Greece will be playing without their star, Giannis Antetokounmpo. However, the team is still a solid contender and one that Team USA should not take lightly.

It’s hard to beat any national team once. It’s even harder to win against them twice.

Team USA vs Team Jordan, August 30th, 4:40 AM, ESPN 2

This one will be much harder to watch for many of you if you are wanting to watch it live. Team USA will be playing Team Jordan at 4:40 AM ET, meaning most around the country will need to wake up much earlier or later than they might otherwise to watch the match.

This will likely be the easier of the two games this week for Team USA, but if they lose to Team Greece a couple of days before it will be essential that Team USA is able to win this match.

From there, we will see if Team USA is able to make it out of the group stage and continue their journey to reclaim gold for the USA.
