Team USA is tipped to be led by younger and rising stars like Anthony Edwards of the Minnesota Timberwolves, Austin Reaves of the Los Angeles Lakers, and Tyrese Haliburton of the Indiana Pacers with Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr on the helm.
Team USA will even have Filipino-American tactician Erik Spoelstra of the Miami Heat serving as one of many deputies.
The USA is coming off its worst end within the FIBA World Cup in 2019, the place it settled for a seventh place end. USA, the winningest workforce within the quadrennial occasion, was back-to-back champion in 2010 and 2014.
USA is in Group C alongside Jordan, Greece, and New Zealand. The five-time gold medalist will open its marketing campaign on August 26 in opposition to the Tall Blacks on the Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay City.
