Odds updated on August 2nd, 2024. 

Serbia are no doubt the second-best team in this group and I expect Nikola Jokic and his teammates to finish second in the group just behind the USA national team. Moreover, Serbia has a head-to-head dominance over South Sudan. With the spread pegged at 15.5, the Eagles will surely cover.
