MANILA, Philippines (AP) — There was a long flight awaiting USA Basketball on Monday.
And now, every bit of USA Basketball’s focus shifts to the Paris Olympics — where the challenge will be even tougher than the World Cup, which again reminded the Americans how much the FIBA game has changed.
“The narrative about USA Basketball and FIBA, and do we need reminders, we’re past that,” U.S. coach Steve Kerr said.
We do a great job as an organization at (USA Basketball) as far as respecting the game.
Those are the colors of the uniforms USA Basketball will be wearing.
