Canada's women's basketball team will head to Paris for their fourth consecutive Olympic Games. 

The roster is headlined by multiple WNBA players including Washington Mystics star rookie Aaliyah Edwards and Los Angeles Sparks guard Kia Nurse. Minnesota Lynx forward Natalie Achonwa is set to become Canada's first-ever four-time Olympian for women's basketball.

Canada's best Olympic result was a fourth-place finish in Los Angeles in 1984, but they're coming off a string of impressive performances. They finished fourth at the 2022 FIBA Basketball World Cup and secured a bronze medal at the 2023 FIBA Women's AmeriCup.

This Olympics will also mark the first time in 24 years that Canada's women's and men's basketball teams will compete together in an Olympic Games.

With a talented roster of WNBA players, international and college players, will Team Canada stand on the Olympic podium for the first time in the team's history?

Here is everything you need to know to watch Team Canada in the Olympic games, including the tipoff times and TV channels for each contest.
