Chinese divers Wu Minxia and Guo Jingjing, at her third Olympics, are favorites to win the 3m synchronized springboard event. (Getty Images)(ATR) Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian face off against NBA competitors LeBron James and Kobe Bryant when China meets the U.S. in a nighttime match at the Olympic Basketball Gymnasium, while Michael Phelps, and Katie Hoff attempt to build on their dominant performances at the U.S. Olympic trials. In another of the four swimming finals at the Water Cube, Dara Torres races for a medal at the age of 41, but Australian powerhouse swimmer Libby Trickett will try to spoil Torres’ fifth Olympic appearance.
