2024 Team USA Olympic Basketball Roster

The final 2024 Team USA Olympic basketball roster is set, with the only significant change being the late addition of Derrick White after Kawhi Leonard was unable to continue playing. Additionally, it remains uncertain when Kevin Durant will be able to play, but he will not be replaced on the roster, which is filled with NBA MVPs and All-Stars. 

It’s not just about winning gold at the Olympics, the superstar relationships built during the few weeks in Paris can send waves in the upcoming NBA seasons, impact NBA season odds, and re-shape the league’s power dynamic. As ESPN Analyst Brian Windhorst said leading up to the Olympics, “Team USA is the real recruitment zone” of prospective super teams. 

Think about it: Lebron and Steph playing together. Ant Edwards’ admiration for Kevin Durant. The value of the lesser known all-stars such as Bam Adebayo and Jrue Holiday are on full display. Devin Booker’s willingness to be a role player for the goal of winning the Gold – that can be easily translated to taking fewer shots for better shots at an NBA championship.
