The 12-man rosters for all 12 nations competing in the men’s basketball tournament at the 2024 Paris Olympics have formally been finalized. The event will tip off on Saturday, with Team USA scheduled to play its first pool-play game on Sunday.
A total of 47 players who are currently on NBA rosters will take part in the Olympics, while a 48th – undrafted free agent Keisei Tominaga – has reportedly agreed to an Exhibit 10 deal with the Pacers that has yet to be finalized.
Team USA leads the way with 12 active NBA players, followed by Canada (10), and Australia (eight). France, Germany, and Serbia have four active NBAers apiece on their respective squads.
With Bol Bol no longer in the mix, South Sudan is the only club at the Olympics without an active NBA player on its roster.
An additional 35 players on Olympic rosters have previously appeared in regular season NBA games. That group of 35 doesn’t include players who signed an NBA contract but never played a game, or players who were selected in an NBA draft but never debuted stateside.
Several teams who don’t have many active NBA players on their rosters are carrying a handful of players who used to be in the league. For instance, Warriors guard Gui Santos is the only active NBA player on Brazil’s roster, but the group includes six former NBA players. Spain also has six former NBAers, while France, Puerto Rico, and South Sudan have four each.
Listed below are the full rosters for this summer’s Olympics. Players on NBA contracts are marked with an asterisk (*) while players with previous NBA experience are marked with a caret (^).

HUERTAS
Isn’t Wenyen Gabriel Still active?
He played in the NBA as recently as March, but didn’t finish the season on a roster and signed with an Israeli team earlier this month.
On paper, the US should run away with this but on the hardwood, I don’t know.
last decade you could say that but since the NBA is such a international game that is more popular now than before its a tough road to gold.
The US team is basically an NBA all star team. No other team can say that. No other team can say that they have an All-NBA starting 5.
Anyone else heard Arenas’ deplorable remarks on the South Sudan team.
Arenas has so many extremely stupid, dumb takes that he makes Kendrick Perkins look like a bonafide genius.
Out of the twelve on the US team three are Celtics. And that is after the team didn’t take arguably the best Celtic in Brown.
Celtics definitely a loaded team. But next year it still will be tough with going up against the new Knicks and Sixers.
The Mavs also got better and with a healthy Luka the Mavs will have the best player on the floor every night.
Will be fun playoffs next year!
