The United States men's teams faced disappointing ends in both basketball and soccer at the 2024 Paris Olympics. The 3x3 basketball team was eliminated after a 21-6 loss to the Netherlands, with key player Jimmer Fredette sidelined due to injury. Players cited a lack of professional-level 3x3 tournaments in the U.S. as a contributing factor to their struggles. Similarly, the men's soccer team was routed 4-0 by Morocco in the quarterfinals, marking their worst Olympic loss since 1972. Despite the elimination, U.S. soccer players valued the experience, noting the intense atmosphere and the opportunity to play in a major tournament. Both teams now look ahead to future competitions with hopes of better preparation and outcomes.
