By | July 2, 2024

The Bahamas men’s basketball team will begin its pursuit of an Olympic berth when it faces Finland in the FIBA Olympic qualifying tournament.

While the Bahamas can often be overlooked in international competitions, this squad has legitimate NBA talent. Deandre Ayton, Buddy Hield and Eric Gordon know exactly what an appearance at the Paris Olympics would mean for citizens of the small island nation.

“There’s young kids looking up to guys like me, those from the Bahamas, that want to succeed in the world. We’re being the example just to give them hope that people from our country can make it to the stars,” Ayton told Olympics.com. “I’m making it as far as where you can represent your country, where people can be proud of you. And I just really want people to be proud of me.”
