In a shocking conclusion to their journey in the 2023 FIBA World Cup, Team USA struggled once again, leaving fans and enthusiasts across the globe searching for answers. This marked a continuation of a concerning trend, where the team has failed to win a medal since 2014, leaving a gap of almost ten years filled with disappointments.

Canada emerged victorious in the fight for the bronze, fueled by the impressive performances of Dillon Brooks, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, and RJ Barrett, who scored 39, 31, and 23 points, respectively, against the USA that ended with a 127-118 scoreline. Despite spirited efforts from Anthony Edwards and Austin Reaves, who contributed 24 and 23 points, respectively, Team USA failed to capitalize on the opportunity, adding another chapter to their history of failure on the international stage.

The void left by the absence of notable NBA stars in the 2023 roster underscored a crucial problem – the need to recruit the best players possible to deliver a performance that matches the illustrious history of Team USA.
