First clue:
The United States team has released a pool of 41 players, from which the squad will be selected for the Paris Olympics in basketball.
As expected, quite a few names shine in it, after the resounding failure in the last Mundobasket.
LeBron James, Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant are the top names, but players like Kyrie Irving, Kawhi Leonard, Jayson Tatum, Devin Booker, Paul George and even Joel Embiid were also included.

Grant Hill, the professional director who selected the squad explained: "The United States boasts incredible basketball talent and I am thrilled that many of the game's superstars have expressed interest in representing our country at the 2024 Summer Olympics," Hill said.
"It is a privilege to choose the team that will help us reach our goal of once again standing at the top of the Olympic podium. This challenging process will develop over the coming months, as we eagerly await the start of the national team's activities."
At the moment, it appears that despite the disappointment in MondoBasket, the one who will continue to coach the lines and coach the American team is the veteran coach of Golden State, Steve Kerr.
