With so much talent to choose from, who will coach Steve Kerr pick for the starting lineup in the upcoming tournament?
Certain players like LeBron James, making his fourth Olympic appearance, and Stephen Curry, debuting in the Olympics after missing out in previous years, seem like clear choices for starting roles.
Kevin Durant also appears to have a secured starting position, forming a formidable “Big 3” with James and Curry.

The remaining two spots are up for grabs. Centers Anthony Davis and Joel Embiid will contend for starting positions against international big men like Giannis Antetokounmpo.
The shooting guard spot is also undecided, with Devin Booker, Anthony Edwards, and Jayson Tatum in contention. Jrue Holiday could see a starting role based on defensive matchups.
Bam Adebayo, Tyrese Haliburton, and Derrick White complete Team USA’s roster.
