Watch the moment Chelsea Gray heard she’d be on the U.S. Olympic women’s basketball team

Chelsea Gray, a four-year star on the Duke women’s basketball team a decade ago, gets to chase her second gold medal this summer in Paris.

For the second time in her illustrious career, former Duke women’s basketball star Chelsea Gray is an Olympian.

USA Basketball shared several social media videos on Tuesday capturing the moment that members of the team learned they’d play in Paris. Gray got her moment alongside Las Vegas Aces teammates A’ja Wilson, Kelsey Plum, and Jackie Young, who all made the team as well.

The four teammates, who combined to win the last two WNBA championships, embraced in a group hug after the announcement.

“It’s a blessing,” Gray said, wiping tears from her eyes after she got to see her Olympic jersey. “This was always the dream, just didn’t know if it was possible so I’m excited.”

Gray hasn’t played since she injured her foot during the 2023 WNBA Finals, but the three-time champion put up a career-high 7.3 assists last season. She also averaged 42.1% from 3-point range as well, the second-best mark of her career, and a personal-best 15.3 points per game.

Gray helped the United States take home the gold in Tokyo during the most recent Games three years ago.
