After the conclusion of the 2024 Paris Olympics, anticipation is already building for the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles. ESPN’s senior WNBA writer Michael Voepel recently speculated on the potential roster for Team USA, following their gold medal victory over France. However, Chicago Sky’s rookie forward Angel Reese expressed her desire to focus on celebrating the current team’s success before looking ahead to future rosters.
Let’s just congratulate these women & let them enjoy this moment! Leave me out of this until my time comes! 😇 https://t.co/tMK1jr9tdZ

While Reese’s sentiment is commendable, the nature of sports media often involves speculation about future rosters immediately after a major event. Despite Reese’s reluctance, there has already been speculation about the 2028 Olympics roster, especially with standout rookies like Caitlin Clark and Reese garnering attention.
It’s likely that Clark and Reese will make Team USA in 2028, given their impressive performances in the WNBA. However, Reese’s desire to focus on the present is understandable, even though her comments may have unintentionally drawn more attention to the ongoing roster discussions.
