SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (AP) — Allisha Gray is glad to be back playing 3x3 for USA Basketball with an eye towards being a member of the team at the Paris Olympics this summer.
She’s the only player returning from the foursome that took home the gold at the Tokyo Games three years ago. That was the inaugural appearance of the sport at the Olympics.
“To be the first team to do it and it being the first time in the Olympics, it was amazing,” Gray said. “It’s great to be back and get back into the groove of things.”
Gray was one of eight players selected from the 15-person training camp over the weekend to participate in a 3x3 tournament in Springfield, Massachusetts at The Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame. She’s on a team with Dearica Hamby, Cameron Brink and Linnae Harper.
Brink and Harper helped the U.S. win the 2023 FIBA 3x3 World Cup. Hamby made her 3x3 debut winning the gold at the Women’s AmeriCup the same year.
