France looks to move a step closer to an elusive gold medal in men’s basketball when it meets Germany at Accor Arena on Thursday in the semifinals of the 2024 Paris Olympics.

France will enter with an added incentive as it looks to avenge its lone loss in the Paris Games, an 85-71 setback against Germany during group play. The French knocked off Canada in the quarterfinals, while the Germans followed a 3-0 run through the group stage with a 76-63 triumph over Greece.
