USA Basketball is stocking up, entering this weekend's FIBA 3×3 Champions Cup armed with an experienced women's roster showcasing extensive small-sided bonafides.
Tokyo Olympic gold medalist Allisha Gray leads the squad, with the Atlanta Dream guard and newly crowned 2026 Unrivaled champion joined by three other WNBA and Unrivaled standouts.
Fellow Dream guard Naz Hillmon and Gray's Mist BC teammate Veronica Burton (Golden State Valkyries) made the cut, with USA Basketball rounding out it's Monday lineup drop with forward Shakira Austin (Washington Mystics, Rose BC).
The exact same quartet won the 2025 FIBA 3×3 AmeriCup, arriving to compete in the second-ever Champions Cup — and the first to feature the US women — with additional 5×5 experience at both the youth and senior team level in tow.
This year's FIBA Champions Cup runs from Friday through Sunday in Bangkok, with the Netherlands, Spain, Canada, Australia, Azerbaijan, Madagascar, and host Thailand joining Team USA on the 3×3 court.
Following two days of pool play, the top two teams in each group will advance to Sunday's knockout rounds.
Along with this weekend's trophy, the tournament champions will also qualify for the 2027 FIBA 3×3 World Cup, 2027 FIBA 3×3 Champions Cup, and the 2028 Olympic Qualification Tournament.
