Team USA vs. China will be televised by NBA TV and will be available to watch online on the USA Basketball Facebook feed.
Sunday is the second of five scheduled exhibition games for Team USA, who enjoyed a 111-74 romp over Argentina in Las Vegas on Friday night. Kevin Durant led the way with 23 points in 21 minutes in the victory, while Paul George scored 18 points in 16 minutes off the bench. DeMarcus Cousins grabbed 15 rebounds to go with his 14 points in just 16 minutes in the win.
USA and China will meet twice in three days, with a rematch on Tuesday night at Oracle Arena in Oakland, the first game for Durant on his new home court.
The U.S. team also has exhibitions scheduled against Venezuela on July 29 at United Center in Chicago, and on Aug. 1 against Nigeria at Toyota Center in Houston.
“The huge thing for us during these five exhibition games is to try to be in game shape by the time we get to Rio,” coach Mike Krzyzewski told reporters after Friday’s win. “These guys are coming off of either not playing or playing real long. They’re not there where they will be.”
Olympic play begins on Saturday, Aug. 6 in Rio, with USA and China meeting in a Group A matchup.
