Days of USA’s basketball dominance on the international stage may be nearing an end, according to former NBA star Ray Allen.
While conducting basketball clinics at the NBA Academy in India, the two-time NBA champion told reporters he thinks Team USA will struggle in 2028 when the Olympics land in Los Angeles.
“I guarantee you that by 2028, it’s going to be stiffer for the Americans to say that we’re the best country in the world at basketball,” Allen said, per indianexpress.com. “If you look at the leagues in Europe, there are a lot of kids coming up that are going to be way better than American players. Which is a great thing for the sport.”
