There are just six days left at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, and that guarantees some high drama in Tuesday's slate of primetime events.

NBC's coverage is set to include medal events in diving and track and field, with plenty of focus on the oval at the Stade de France. In total, 15 gold medals will be awarded across Tuesday's events, including five in athletics. Boxing, track cycling, sailing, skateboarding, and wrestling will also crown champions in various event classes.

Additionally, two of the most-watched team sports will continue knockout play, with LeBron James and the Team USA men's basketball team playing a quarterfinal Tuesday. The women's soccer tournament will see both semifinal matches take place as well, setting the stage for the medal rounds.
