Olympic women's 3x3 roster: Meet Team USA's 2024 squad for Paris

The Paris Olympics are finally here, and among the many stars competing for the U.S. over the next couple of weeks is a stacked Team USA 3×3 women’s basketball roster, which includes WNBA stars Rhyne Howard and Dearica Hamby.

Women’s 3×3 basketball was first featured as an Olympic sport at the 2021 Tokyo Games, where the U.S. — with a roster that included WNBA players Jackie Young, Kelsey Plum, Allisha Gray and Stefanie Dolson — walked away a gold-medal winner.

During this year’s competition, there are several pool rounds of games (July 30 to August 3) before teams will play in the semifinal and medal games on August 5. The eight teams on the women’s side are the United States, Germany, Australia, Canada, Spain, Azerbaijan, France and China.
