The gold medal in women's basketball from the 2012 London Olympics is up for grabs on Saturday, and the women from Team USA will face off with France to see who can claim to be the best in the world. The Americans are heavy favorites, having won 40 straight Olympic games and having won the gold medal in the last four Games. In comparison, France has never won a medal in women's hoops.
Locally, that game will be broadcast on NBC from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. ET. Streaming of the game is available via NBC's Live Extra and will take place at the same time. A cable or satellite subscription is required for viewing.
