Phoenix Suns teammates Kevin Durant and Devin Booker are among the star-studded roster headed to the 2024 Paris Olympics later this month.

Team USA will play five exhibition games before it heads to Paris, the first of which will be on July 10 in Vegas against Team Canada. Their first matchup of the Olympics will be on July 28 against Serbia.

LeBron James will be making his first Olympic appearance in 12 years, while Stephen Curry will be playing in his first-ever Olympics. James, Curry and Durant will all team up for the first time in their careers.

Durant is the most decorated player in Team USA men’s basketball history, as he is their all-time Olympic-leading point scorer (435 points) and has scored 640 points overall in his international career (most-ever for Team USA across the Olympics and FIBA). He has been a part of the last three Olympic teams, who have all won the gold medal with Durant as their leading scorer every year.

Booker joined Durant and Team USA in their run to the gold in 2021 at the Tokyo Olympics. He averaged 9.3 points across six contests in Tokyo.

Stay tuned for more coverage of Durant, Booker and Team USA leading up to the Olympics.
