The 41-member 2024 USA Basketball men’s player pool was announced on Tuesday. The 12-player 2024 USA men’s team will participate in the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris
The Oklahoma City Thunder have one player in the pool: rookie center Chet Holmgren. The 21-year-old was on the 2023 USA Basketball men’s select team this past offseason.
Holmgren is part of an impressive young trio that has led the Thunder to a 29-13 record and has them fighting for first place in the West halfway through the season.
Holmgren was drafted with the No. 2 pick of the 2022 NBA draft. In 42 games this season, he’s averaging 17.3 points on 54.2% shooting, 7.2 rebounds and 2.5 blocks. He’s shooting 38.6% from 3 on 4.2 attempts.
