With seven gold medals from the Olympics, the U.S. women’s basketball team is on a historic run that no other team is even close to ending.

The Americans have remained unbeaten in Olympic competitions since 1992, despite the rest of the world making progress. Their victory margin in the Tokyo Games was the narrowest since their winning run started at the Atlanta Games in 1996, with an average of 16 points.

The team’s short preparation period for joint practice is a serious obstacle for the United States. The team must come together quickly because they will only be together briefly before the Paris Games.

Diana Taurasi stated; “Yes, things are improving elsewhere in the world.” She added, “The years have shown that it’s not as simple as it seems.”

Diana Taurasi, 42, is a veteran of five U.S. Olympic teams and is going for a record-tying sixth gold in Paris. The American women’s basketball team is aiming to break the record set by the men, who won seven straight gold medals from 1936 to 1968.

Both teams have demonstrated their supremacy on the international scene by sharing the longest winning streak in Olympic history for gold medals in a conventional team sport.

American objective in Paris 

The Americans have a forward-looking outlook and don’t get caught up in the past; instead, they focus on the here and now. Their only objective is to win in Paris; they place more importance on short-term gain than long-term dynasty preservation.

“The biggest thing you have to shut out is thinking that way every day because you will lose sight of what it takes to get there. Given that this is one of the greatest sporting dynasties in history, there is a compelling story that we cannot ignore. This is our unique voyage, our first time travelling with this group, and it’s all for one gold medal,” U.S coach Cheryl Reeve said.
