Sunday, August 21 (all times Eastern)

12:15 p.m. — Men’s Volleyball: Gold Medal Match

Brazil is No. 1 in the world and has taken silver in the last two Olympics. As for the U.S.: The No. 5 team in the world will need some luck to make it this far, but we would certainly "dig" seeing them here.

2:45 p.m. — Men’s Basketball: Gold Medal Game

No LeBron, no big deal. No Curry, no problem. Some high-profile players are skipping Rio, but Jimmy Butler and his U.S. teammates should stroll to yet another gold medal.

2:45 p.m. — Closing Ceremony

Phew! After more than two weeks, the Games finally come to a close. The athletes will enjoy one last moment in the spotlight, the Olympic flame will dim, and we'll turn our eyes to Tokyo, which will host the 2020 Games.
