Caitlin Clark named to USA Basketball training camp roster

Date:

Caitlin Clark received an invite to USA Basketball camp, which will take place in Cleveland on April 3-5. 

It could be an even busier weekend for the Iowa star, should the Hawkeyes make the Final Four, which also take place in Cleveland from April 5-7. Should they fall short, Clark would be able to take part in the senior team camp. She’s the lone college player named to the roster, which is filled with WNBA stars.

Clark currently leads Division I in scoring, assists and 3-pointers, and is largely expected to be the No. 1 overall pick in the WNBA draft on April 15. 

Dates have yet to be announced for when the two women’s basketball Olympic teams will be announced for 5-on-5 and 3×3. The Paris Olympics are set to take place from July 26 to Aug. 11, with the U.S. looking for its eighth consecutive gold medal in 5-on-5. They won the first 3×3 Olympic tournament at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics. 

Nine former Olympians are set to take part in the camp in Cleveland, including five-time Olympic gold medalist Diana Taurasi. Others include Ariel Atkins (Washington Mystics); Chelsea Gray, A’ja Wilson, Kelsey Plum and Jackie Young (Las Vegas Aces); Brittney Griner (Mercury); Jewell Loyd (Seattle Storm); and Breanna Stewart (New York Liberty).
