Baseball is set to return to the Olympics in 2028 after being absent since 2008 and only making a short appearance in 2021. However, participation of major leaguers remains uncertain due to previous restrictions and health concerns, with a potential compromise allowing top prospects to compete instead. Meanwhile, breaking made its Olympic debut in Paris, with Victor Montalvo becoming the first bronze medalist; however, it is unlikely to return for the Los Angeles Games in 2028, as funding issues loom. Although the event was celebrated, the breaking community is focusing on leveraging this exposure for future sustainability. The International Olympic Committee added breaking to attract younger audiences, but some critics argue it doesn't belong in the Olympics. Looking ahead, breaking's advocates remain hopeful for its inclusion in the 2032 Brisbane Games despite its current exclusion from the upcoming Los Angeles Olympics.
