Diana Taurasi has been named to the 2024 Olympic team, marking her sixth consecutive Olympic appearance. This selection makes her the first basketball athlete to compete in six Olympic Games. Taurasi, who celebrated her 42nd birthday, also matched Michael Jordan for the most career 20-point games at age 40 or older. Taurasi's Olympic run is unmatched, breaking the all-time international appearance record she previously shared with five other players. The 6x Olympian will be competing in the Paris Olympics.
