Victor Wembayama
Evan Fournier
Killian Hayes
Theo Maledon

With Gobert coming off the bench. And the Olympics will be held in Paris. It's gonna be tough for USA, hopefully Zion will be healthy enough to start at the 5.

If he’s not going to play for Cameroon he should be playing for Team USA.

The nation he has lived in for the last 14 years.

This dude is literally playing for his home countries oppressor and colonial power.
The Cameroonian Federation is way too corrupt, and they have no chance to win gold. Team USA? He's not sure to be a starter. Also he may simply dislike the country, many Africans are against US policies and attitude in general. He has a lot of family in France, and it would be more prestigious to win gold with France rather than with the US.

In what world would he not be a starter for USA? There’s only 1 other center in the world that you can argue is better than him and he’s not American

He'd easily start over Bam Adebayo :mjlol:
