featuring six olympic and/or fiba world cup gold medalists, usa basketball unveiled its official 12-man 2016 u.s. olympic men's basketball team.
selected for the 2016 u.s. olympic team, which is seeking a third consecutive olympic title, were: carmelo anthony (new york knicks/syracuse); harrison barnes (golden state warriors/north carolina); jimmy butler (chicago bulls/marquette); demarcus cousins (sacramento kings/kentucky); demar derozan (toronto raptors/usc); kevin durant (oklahoma city thunder/texas); paul george (indiana pacers/fresno state); draymond green (golden state warriors/michigan state); kyrie irving (cleveland cavaliers/duke); deandre jordan (los angeles clippers/texas a&m); kyle lowry (toronto raptors/villanova); and klay thompson (golden state warriors/washington state).
the u.s. olympic men' basketball team was approved by the usa basketball board of directors and is pending final approval by the united states olympic committee.
"i think i can speak for the entire coaching staff and say we're extremely excited about the team we will field for the 2016 olympics in rio de janeiro," said jerry colangelo, who has served as managing director of the usa men's national team since 2005. "i love our depth, which is another indication of the depth of talent our national team program is blessed with. we've got a great mix of talent, scorers, past gold medal winners and outstanding youth."
"i'm anxious to get on the court, and along with my great coaching staff, get to work," said usa head coach mike krzyzewski, who by serving as head coach of his third olympic squad is now tied with coaching legend henry iba for the most u.s. olympic basketball head coaching assignments. "since 2006 and including the last two olympics, our players have represented themselves, the game and our country in an exemplary manner. i know this team will continue that standard.
"looking at this team, our overall balance is what strikes me. we have lightning-quick guards who can score as well as distribute the basketball. we have great shooters and explosive scorers, we're big and athletic, and i think we'll really be able to defend."
