A complete breakdown of the mess that is the Team USA men’s basketball roster

Things aren’t good right now.

Oh boy.

It’s already been a not-so-great week for the United States men’s basketball team that’s heading to the Tokyo Olympics soon. They lost to Nigeria to open exhibition play and followed it up with a loss to Australia. They did beat Argentina, though, quieting a lot of critics.

But there are already changes coming to the roster — one, in particular, due to COVID-19 protocols, as you may have seen — and some uncertainty about when certain members will be joining the team. So let’s break it all down, player by player, to show how messy things are at the moment with the Olympics looming.
