The FIBA World Cup has had a lot of buzz for the past few weeks, though largely for the unfortunate reason of Paul George’s injury. That said, the tournament is still likely to be an entertaining appetite whetter for the upcoming NBA season. While many NBA stars (James Harden, Stephen Curry, and the triumphantly returning Derrick Rose) are on Team USA, they still aren’t quite at “Dream Team levels” so the tournament will likely prove far more competitive than the Olympics.

ESPN and NBA TV will cover the entire tournament, and ESPN revealed their schedule for the tourney exclusively to Awful Announcing. First of all, for those just absolutely obsessed with all things FIBA World Cup: ESPN3 will stream every single game of the tourney, all 63. Meanwhile, ESPN and ESPN2 will broadcast all of Team USA’s action, while NBA TV (English) and ESPN Deportes (Spanish) will also televise select matches.

ESPN will air a Round of 16 game, three of the four quarterfinals, the semifinals, third place game and championship from the World Cup, which is being held in Spain. Coverage begins on August 30th with Finland taking on the United States. The Championship game will air on ESPN2 Sunday, Sept. 14.

Kevin Connors and Mark Kestecher will provide play-by-play for the games, with Fran Fraschilla on color. ESPN.com’s Marc Stein will be on-site at the tournament reporting.
