The 2024 AT&T WNBA All-Star Game will have the USA Basketball Women’s National Team facing off against the rest of the WNBA All-Stars.

Throughout the World Cup, prospects who are on the W's radar flashed reason for optimism and buy-in to who they could become as players.

International play, in particular, turns much of what’s known and given on its head. Where else can we see a team assembled like the United States national team?

Led by 30 points from Brittney Griner (Phoenix Mercury/Baylor/Houston, Texas), the U.S. Olympic Women’s Basketball Team (6-0) claimed a seventh straight Olympic gold medal with a 90-75 win over host Japan (4-2) on Sunday afternoon at Saitama Super Arena in Tokyo.

Up next is going for a seventh straight gold medal, a feat accomplished by just one other team in Olympic history in any sport. The U.S. will take on either France (2-2) or host Japan (3-1) in the gold medal game, which is Saturday at 10:30 p.m. ET (11:30 a.m. on Sunday in Japan). The U.S. edged both teams in pool play.

Following the 2020 Olympic women’s basketball preliminary round, FIBA conducted the draw to determine quarterfinal pairings for the Tokyo Olympic basketball medal round on Monday night in Saitama, Japan.

In a tight contest throughout, the U.S. Olympic Women’s Basketball Team (2-0) fended off France (1-1) for a 93-82 win on Monday afternoon at Saitama Super Arena in Tokyo.

The U.S. Olympic Women's 3x3 Basketball Team (7-1) held off a tough French (5-4) squad for a 18-16 semifinal victory on Wednesday evening at Aomi Urban Sports Park on Saturday in Tokyo. The U.S. is poised to take on the winner of the Russian Olympic Committee (5-2) versus China (6-2) semifinal in tonight's gold medal game at 9:55 p.m. JST (8:55 a.m. EDT).

Behind A’ja Wilson’s and Brittney Griner’s double-doubles, the U.S. topped Nigeria 81-72, the team's 50th win in a row in Olympic play.
