Team USA basketball vs. Argentina live stream: How to watch online
Here's hoping the third warm-up for Team USA is a win
The Team USA vs. Argentina live stream kicks off at 6 p.m. ET / 3 p.m. PT today (July 13).
It will air on NBCSN, which is available on Sling TV's Blue package — which is currently on sale down to $10 for the first month.
This is for pride: the Team USA vs. Argentina live stream today is an exhibition round matchup as the American squad looks to get in shape for the Tokyo games. And they need to soon — the squad dropped both of their first two matches. They started with a narrow 90-87 loss to Nigeria on Saturday and then a much wider loss of 91-83 to Australia yesterday.
And it’s all forgivable in a way. These games, where Team USA's offense has been completely out of whack, are taking place in the shadow of the NBA Finals. As you might expect that means that this team — which has never played together as a roster before — have barely had time to gel. That doesn’t change the expectations on their superstar shoulders.

As they stand now, Team USA has a mix of stars, including Kevin Durant of the Brooklyn Nets, Bradley Beal of the Washington Wizards and Damian Lillard of the Portland Trail Blazers. Give this team enough time, they should be pretty good.
That said, we wonder if NBA owners are wondering how chummy these guys are getting. You never know when the next Banana Boat Team (remember when LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Carmelo Anthony and Chris Paul got very friendly in public?).
But that's a question for another day. Here's everything you need to see if Team USA can beat Argentina, or fall to a 0-3 record.

Team USA vs. Argentina live streams in the US
In the U.S. the Team USA basketball vs. Argentina live stream airs on NBC SN and Peacock, starting at 6 p.m. ET / 3 p.m. PT today (July 13).
If you've already cut the cord and don't have a cable package, you'll be able to get this game on Sling TV and Fubo TV, two of the picks on our best streaming services list. If we had to choose, we'd go for Sling because it's also got TNT for the NBA playoffs, which we're also watching — which Fubo doesn't have.
Sling Blue is the package for you for NBC SN, as it also gets NBC (which is also accessible with one of the best TV antennas).
