Raptors’ Scottie Barnes not predicted to make team USA’s 2028 Olympic men’s basketball Roster
Team USA’s men’s basketball team won gold at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
With the Olympic Games officially closed, it’s never too early to look ahead to the 2028 Summer Olympics set to take place in Los Angeles.
ESPN’s Kevin Pelton predicted Team USA’s 2028 Olympic men’s basketball roster. He has Bam Adebayo, Paolo Banchero, Devin Booker, Jalen Brunson, Anthony Davis, Anthony Edwards, Joel Embiid, Tyrese Haliburton, Chet Holmgren, Tyrese Maxey, Jayson Tatum and Jalen Williams making the team.
Notably, Pelton left off Toronto Raptors forward Scottie Barnes.
