The highly anticipated rematch between the United States and South Sudan's national men's basketball teams is finally here, and there are several ways to tune in. Keep reading to learn everything you need to know about how to watch USA vs. South Sudan free, including global watch options.
The United States and South Sudan last played at a pre-Olympic expo in London, which saw the US narrowly pull off a 101-100 win. The game was looking to be a wash for the States, but a last-minute bucket from LeBron James saved the team. So far in the pool round at the Olympics, the US has defeated Serbia, and South Sudan has beat out Puerto Rico. Today's game will help determine which teams can advance to the quarterfinals, which start early next week.
Men's and women's Olympic basketball has only just begun, with several games left before any teams are awarded medals, so don't forget to bookmark our Olympic basketball streaming guide for the latest on every game. For other events, you can check out our Olympics hub.
The USA vs. South Sudan game will live stream through Peacock in the US. Subscriptions start at $7.99 a month and will cover you for every single Olympic event. The game will also air on the USA network. If you don't have cable, you can watch USA through a live television streaming package like Sling TV or Fubo.
Sling is one of the more affordable live TV services out there, with around 40 channels (including USA) in its Sling Blue plan. Subscriptions cost $40 a month, but you can get your first month for just $20 right now. Fubo is a bit more expensive but comes with over 180 channels (including USA). Subscriptions go for $79.99 monthly, but you can try one week free if you're a new customer.
The USA vs. South Sudan game will live stream on Eurosport through Discovery+ in the UK, along with the rest of the Olympics. Subscriptions start at £3.99 a month. British Olympic fans can find the entirety of the Olympics here, but select events will also stream free through BBC iPlayer.
The USA vs. South Sudan game will be available to stream through 9Now in Australia. This is a free option that just requires account creation to use. In order to catch every Olympic basketball game, Australians will need to subscribe to Stan Sport (which will cost about $27 a month), but select match-ups — like today's game — will also stream on 9Now.
If you'll be away from Australia when the game tips off, you can still keep up with the free option by utilizing a VPN (virtual private network). VPNs easily let people change their device's virtual location so they can still use their usual websites from anywhere. They're particularly common among people who want to upgrade their privacy and access their go-to apps while traveling abroad.
We recommend ExpressVPN, an easy-to-use option for the VPN-curious. Plus, it comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee, so there's no sweat if you find that it's not what you're looking for. Our ExpressVPN review has the full details, and we've outlined how to use a VPN below.
Note: The use of VPNs is illegal in certain countries, and using VPNs to access region-locked streaming content might constitute a breach of the terms of use for certain services. Insider does not endorse or condone the illegal use of VPNs.
