USA Basketball is sticking with continuity – and familiar names – for its men’s 3x3 basketball team at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Former college star and No. 10 NBA draft pick (2011) Jimmer Fredette, Canyon Barry, the son of Basketball Hall of Famer Rick Barry; Kareem Maddox and Dylan Travis were selected to play in Paris, USA Basketball announced Tuesday.

All four played college basketball, including at the Division I level for Fredette, Barry and Maddox.

This is the same team that won a silver medal at the 2023 FIBA 3x3 World Cup in Vienna, Austria. The U.S. went 4-0 in group play, defeated France in the quarterfinals, topped Brazil in the semifinals and lost to top-ranked Serbia in the final. They won gold at the 2023 Pan-Am Games and gold at the 2022 FIBA AmeriCup.

This is a really scrappy team of gymrats with high motors and basketball IQ. Great fundamentals.

Was Aaron Craft unavailable?

Is it a rule that NBA guys can't play? Because you could still put out a better roster even if you got random guys at the end of a bench NBA guys.
