Joel Embiid, the NBA’s reigning Most Valuable Player, has committed to play
for Team USA at the Paris 2024 Olympics, sources told ESPN on Thursday.
Embiid informed Team USA executive director Grant Hill of his decision on
Thursday morning, sources said, just days after the two quietly met for close
to an hour in Ft Collins, Colo., where the Sixers are holding training camp.
Embiid, who was born in Cameroon and holds both French and American
citizenship, has been at the center of an intense recruiting battle over
which country he will represent at the Olympics.
He ultimately chose to represent the United States, sources said, because he
wants to help the United States return to the top of the international
basketball world after it failed to medal at the World Championships in
Manila this summer.
