Woj: Lebron, Steph Curry, & KD Headline 2024 Team USA Olympic Roster

LFG! One last ride for the old-heads Bron & KD. And this will be Curry’s first Olympics.

Rest of the roster is pretty nasty too, though there’s more guys over 30 than I expected. Embiid being on the roster is still weird too, and I would’ve expected Jalen Brunson to be there. Overall though, this should be fun. No excuse not to bring home the Gold for a 5th straight time.

I bet it looks something like:

Curry / Haliburton
Holiday / Booker
LeBron / Edwards
KD / Tatum
Embiid / AD / Adebayo

LeBron and KD are definitely starting

I doubt Embiid plays. He looks like he's limping around every game since he's been back. He needs time to rest and get his injuries right.

That’s okay, you’ll think he’s even weaker when we’re about to play the team Jokic is on and he sits due to injury.

Wemby, Golbert, and Sarr gonna be a handful.

True, though Sarr is still 18 and very green offensively. Defensively they’ll be tough though. We’ll need to hit our 3’s that game and run a lot of PnR to draw those guys away from the basket.

Who makes sense for the last spot? Caruso? Another POA defender would be ideal.

Tatum is only 22 years old, and Ant, Booker, and Haliburton are young.

Tatum is 26. This is his 8th year you think he started in the NBA when he was 14?

Problem is Sarr and wemby can guard the perimeter. Their versatility is crazy.

I have no idea what to expect in terms of how the team plays together.
