Team USA FIBA Basketball World Cup roster: Anthony Edwards, Austin Reaves headline team in 2023 image

The United States is ready for the 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup.

After a disappointing seventh-place finish at the 2019 FIBA Basketball World Cup in China, USA Basketball has taken a different approach this time around. Building up the roster with a better balance of guards, wings and bigs, Team USA will feature some of the most promising young stars in the NBA today.

The average age of the roster is only 24.4 years old, with the oldest players being Josh Hart and Bobby Portis, who are 28. There are six players who are 25 or under, with reigning Rookie of the Year Paolo Banchero (20) being the youngest player on the team.
