The 2024 Paris Olympics men’s basketball team for Team USA is being finalized, featuring iconic players such as LeBron James, Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant, and Joel Embiid. The team is being led by managing director Grant Hill, who has left one roster slot open for a player to be added after a July training camp in Las Vegas.
The 11-man roster includes Anthony Davis, Devin Booker, Anthony Edwards, Jayson Tatum, Jrue Holiday, Bam Adebayo, and Tyrese Haliburton. Steve Kerr, coach of the team, will be coaching Curry and Durant, who has won three men’s basketball Olympic gold medals, tying him with Carmelo Anthony.
Haliburton and Edwards are the only players from the 2023 FIBA World Cup team who have been selected for the Olympics. This showcases the team’s mix of experience and upcoming talent. LeBron James is playing in his fourth Olympics and has previously won a bronze medal in 2004 and gold medals in 2008 and 2012. The team is sure to make a strong showing at the Paris Games.
