    Wisconsin women’s basketball forward Serah Williams was named to the 2024 USA 3×3 Nations League roster today, per a release from USA Basketball.

    Serving as a qualification route to the FIBA 3×3 U23 World Cup 2024 in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, the 2024 USA 3×3 Women’s Nations League Team event will take place in Mexico City from July 22-28.

    Both the USA men’s and women’s 3×3 Nations League Teams will attend training camp in Phoenix July 18-20 before the trek to Mexico.

    Williams will compete alongside Christina Dalce (University of Maryland), Morgan Maly (Creighton University), Cotie McMahon (Ohio State University), Lucy Olsen (University of Iowa) and Mikaylah Williams (LSU). This event will mark the first time Williams has donned the red, white and blue on the hardwood.

    At UW, the Brooklyn native averaged a team-high 17.4 points per game during her 2023-24 campaign. She also pocketed 2024 Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year and 2024 Big Ten First Team honors after appearing in 30 contests for head coach Marisa Moseley a season ago.

    Williams will look to build upon her recent success as Wisconsin’s go-to scoring option ahead of this season. She will play alongside four new Badgers this fall: international guard Alba Martin Mesa, walk-on Reese Jaramillo, former Northern Kentucky center Carter McCray and former Duquesne guard Tess Myers.
