Caitlin Clark left off USA Basketball national team roster, Diana Taurasi selected for sixth Olympic appearance

Caitlin Clark will not be going to the Paris Olympics, as confirmed by a source familiar with the decision. Despite her international experience with USA Basketball, she was unable to attend the national training camp due to her commitments with Iowa. Instead, the U.S. team is expected to include Diana Taurasi for her sixth Olympics, alongside players like Brittney Griner, Breanna Stewart, and A'ja Wilson. The team will also feature first-time Olympians like Alyssa Thomas and Sabrina Ionescu. The U.S. women's basketball team has a strong history of success, having won every gold medal since the 1996 Atlanta Olympics. The team will play an exhibition game in London before heading to France for the Olympics.
