Bradley Beal

While the NBA playoffs are still in full swing, there are some already looking ahead to their next opportunity to play basketball. For some stars, the perfect chance will come in late July when the 2020 Tokyo Olympics are finally slated to occur. Team USA basketball has already received several commitments, including Phoenix Suns star Devin Booker and Washington Wizards star Bradley Beal.

Washington Wizards star Bradley Beal and Boston Celtics standout Jayson Tatum both hail from St. Louis, and will finally share the court as teammates. Tatum had previously committed to playing for Team USA at the Olympic Games in Tokyo this summer. Shams Charania of The Athletic reported Friday Beal will also be part of the Olympic squad, allowing him the opportunity to play with his hometown friend.

The Team USA roster for this year’s Tokyo Olympics is beginning to fill out nicely. According to reports from NBA insider Shams Charania on Friday afternoon, Washington Wizards star shooting guard Bradley Beal has committed to join the roster this summer. His name will be added to a growing list of committed stars including Damian Lillard, Draymond Green and Jayson Tatum.

Bradley Beal has been one of the great protagonists of the NBA season and once again demonstrated his enormous commitment to Washington Wizards. Proof of this is how he did not hide at any time and was able to deploy his best basketball in situations where others wrinkle or are prey to fatigue, such as the dreaded and usual back-to-back. He was the player who scored the most, with an average of 35.9 in this context, being behind him Zach Lavine and Stephen Curry, as revealed by Stat Muse.

The roster for Team USA for the Tokyo Olympics this summer is starting to take shape. Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard and Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green were the first pair of players to commit to the team, and now others are joining them. Boston Celtics All-Star forward Jayson Tatum has committed to play for the team, according to Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports, as has Washington Wizards star guard Bradley Beal, per Shams Charania of The Athletic. Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker has also committed to the team, per ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.

When last we saw Team USA on the international stage, it finished seventh in the 2019 FIBA World Cup. Entering that tournament, the Americans had won 58 consecutive games in international competition dating back to the 2006 World Cup, but the 2019 roster was perhaps the weakest Team USA had ever fielded with NBA players. Kemba Walker, Khris Middleton and Brook Lopez were the only players on the team who had made an All-Star Game prior to that tournament. Youngsters like Donovan Mitchell, Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown led the way, but they came up short against more experienced teams like France and Serbia.

Team USA's basketball squad is starting to take shape as a fourth player has committed to the roster for the 2021 Olympics. Wizards star Bradley Beal is the latest to join the squad, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic. He'll play along with Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard, Celtics forward Jayson Tatum and Warriors forward Draymond Green, the three other players that have committed to play for Gregg Popovich this summer.
