WATCH | Canada's Olympic basketball run in 2000 left Steve Nash in tears:

Victor Wembanyama marked his start of the Paris Games with all the dunks, defence and other eye-popping plays that have made the 20-year-old appointment viewing during his young basketball career.

More importantly for France, it added up to a victory for the host nation.

Wembanyama had 19 points, nine rebounds, four steals and three blocks to help France overcome an early deficit and hold off Brazil 78-66 to open the group stage at Pierre Mauroy Stadium in Lille.

France, which was showered with chants of "Le Bleus!", joined Germany as winners in Group B on the opening day of the tournament in Lille.

Jock Landale had 20 points and nine rebounds as Australia beat Spain 92-80 Saturday to open the group stage of the men's tournament.

Patty Mills added 19 points and Josh Giddey contributed 17 to lift Australia to the victory in Group A, which also includes Greece and Canada. Australia next meets Canada on Tuesday while Spain will face Greece.

Franz Wagner had 22 points and six rebounds, and Germany pulled away from Japan in the second half to secure a 97-77 win in Group B play.

Daniel Theis added 18 points and seven rebounds. Moritz Wagner added 15 points for the defending World Cup champions, who never trailed. Germany has Brazil next in group play on Tuesday. Japan takes on Olympics host France.
