2024 USA BASKETBALL SHOWCASE TO FEATURE USA MEN’S NATIONAL TEAM GAMES AT THE O2
USA Basketball announced that the USA Basketball Men’s National Team will play a pair of games at The O2 as part of the 2024 USA Basketball Showcase and in preparation for the 2024 Olympic Summer Games. The Games will be taking place on Saturday 20th and Monday 22nd July 2024.
The USA Basketball Showcase features a series of games that help the USA Basketball national teams prepare for major competitions, including the FIBA World Cup and Olympic Summer Games. Hosted in partnership between USA Basketball and TEG, the U.S. will face South Sudan on Saturday 20 July and reigning FIBA World Cup champion Germany on Monday 22 July at London’s O2 Arena. The trip will mark the U.S. men’s first visit to London since winning the gold medal at the 2012 Olympics.
The USA Basketball Showcase will be televised live in the United States by FOX Sports, with both games airing on FOX. “USA Basketball is looking forward to the excitement of an Olympic year and the opportunity to take the USA Basketball Showcase to Las Vegas and London,” said Jim Tooley, CEO, USA Basketball. “Facing South Sudan and Germany will provide optimal training opportunities as we prepare to defend our gold medal in Paris and we are thrilled to host them next summer.”
To start Olympic preparation, the USA men will hold training camp in Las Vegas, its long-time training hub. More information, including training camp details, additional stops on the USA Basketball Showcase and team rosters, will be announced later.
The USA officially qualified for the 2024 Olympics as one of the top two nations from the FIBA Americas zone at the 2023 FIBA World Cup in September. The American men will compete for their fifth straight – and 17th overall – Olympic gold medal.
In total, USA Basketball will be represented by four teams at the 2024 Olympic Summer Games, including 5-on-5 men and women and 3x3 men and women. The USA are reigning Olympic champions in 5-on-5 men and women and 3x3 women. The 3x3 men are set to make their Olympic debut next summer. More information about all four USA Basketball teams will be announced at a later date.
