The United States men's basketball team has assembled almost all the best basketball players in the NBA in hopes of winning another gold medal. That march toward the podium stand begins tomorrow when Team USA faces Serbia in the first round of Group C.

Just as players want to make their mark on history, so do their respective sneaker brands. There was major campaigning going on behind the scenes to get one of the rare roster spots on Team USA. The process even left the NBA Finals MVP jaded.

Now that the roster is finalized, the exhibition games have been played, and the Olympic torch lit, and now is the time for action. Below is a breakdown of every sneaker worn by Team USA basketball players in the 2024 Paris Olympics.
