Wisconsin volleyball stars enjoy Olympic opening ceremony with NBA legend Steph Curry

Just days after snapping a photo with rapper Snoop Dogg, former Wisconsin volleyball stars Lauren Carlini and Dana Rettke were pictured alongside NBA legend Steph Curry at the Summer Olympics opening ceremony on Friday.

Staged along Paris, France’s Seine River, the opening ceremony included a majority of the 592 American athletes selected to participate in the Olympic Games this summer.

Several crossovers between powerful sporting figures, including USA Volleyball’s women’s roster and four-time NBA champion Steph Curry, took place on Friday before the ceremony.

The Americans were together on one vessel as the Olympic procession floated down the Seine.

Carlini and Rettke will represent the Badgers for the first time on an Olympic stage this Monday at 10:00 a.m. CT. The red, white and blue will square off against China before a match vs. Serbia on July 31.

Carlini will play setter while Rettke will play middle blocker during the USA’s quest for a gold medal.
