Looking ahead to 2028 and Los Angeles and the W will be in a much better position, which means team USA by proxy will be in a much better position than you’re like.

You’re like Cheryl Miller, show me the bread, right?

What, what do you think team USA could look like in 2028 in Los Angeles?

I expect this rookie class will be seeing all of them there.

You know, it was controversial if Caitlin should have been there or not, perhaps it was uh of, of what’s the word misplay or whatever like to not, you know, to not have her there, you know, perhaps, you know, learning what USA basketball is about so that she could lead them into the next, you know, journey of that.

But regardless she wasn’t put on the team.

So it’s, I, I expect to see Caitlin, you know, maybe we’ll see Angel Reese, you know, right now, she’s done a fantastic job as a rebounder in the W NBA.

We’ll see how she continues to grow as an overall player in the W NBA.

I think Cameron brink is gonna be an Olympian, you know, coming back from the injury.

I wonder in 2028 I want to go in LA.

I, yeah.

So I think with it being in L A, Juju would be a rookie in the W right, that would be her rookie season.

So I think with the A ties with what I’m expecting for Juju, I think, I think Juju is going to be bigger than all these girls and she’s going to be more marketable as time goes on.

You know, she’s at a legacy school.

She’s in Los Angeles.

We’re going to see more of her.

You damn right.

She’s better be on the team.
