Trae Young Believes He Should Be on Team USA Roster: 'I Would Love to Play'

When Team USA announced its roster for the 2023 FIBA World Cup, Trae Young's name was conspicuously absent.

The two-time All-Star, who has been snubbed for the last two rounds in the Team USA selection process, said he hopes to be among the group playing in the 2024 Summer Olympics.

"I definitely want to. It's up to them if they want me to," Young said on the Gil's Arena podcast (24:40 mark). "I would love to play with guys and show off my passing even more and not have to go out and score a lot and just be there if they need me.
