Reigning WNBA MVP Breanna Stewart will lead Team USA at the 2024 FIBA Women’s Olympic Qualifying Tournament in Antwerp, Belgium later this month. After a short training camp in Brooklyn, N.Y., USA Basketball announced the full 12-player roster for the event on Sunday.
By virtue of winning the 2022 FIBA Women’s World Cup, Team USA has already qualified for the 2024 Olympics in Paris, but will still participate in the qualifying tournament to gain continuity and compete against high-qualify opposition. They’ll play three games from Feb. 8-11 against Belgium, Nigeria and Senegal.
Ahead of the action, here’s a look at the 12 WNBA stars that will represent Team USA in Belgium. It’s important to note these are not necessarily the 12 players that will be on the Olympic roster.
