Ranked as the favorite is, unsurprisingly, the U.S. With a stellar record of seven consecutive Olympic gold medals and an unbeaten streak since 1992, the U.S. team is the one to watch. Key players like Diana Taurasi, aiming for a historic sixth gold medal, along with A’ja Wilson, Breanna Stewart, and Chelsea Gray, are set to lead the charge. Teams with the highest chances of earning silver and bronze include Australia, Belgium, and France. Australia, rejuvenated with stars like Ezi Magbegor, Alanna Smith, and Rebecca Allen, poses a significant threat. Belgium, with standout players like Emma Meesseman, Julie Allemand, and Kim Mestdagh, brings depth and versatility. France, known for their defensive prowess and consistency, boasts stars such as Marine Johannès and Sandrine Gruda. Our underdogs or "sleepers" include China, Japan, and Germany. China has shown significant improvement, with rising stars like Li Meng and Han Xu. Japan, with a mix of resilience and strong teamwork, features key players like Rui Machida and Yuki Miyazawa. Germany, making their first Olympic appearance, is bolstered by WNBA talent Satou Sabally. Canada and Spain fall into the low ceiling category. These teams are not top contenders but are expected to win games. Canada, with players like Kia Nurse and Natalie Achonwa, has strong fundamentals and potential. Spain, although inconsistent, has high-level skills and experience with players like Alba Torrens and Astou Ndour. Lastly, we have the longshots: Serbia, Nigeria, and Puerto Rico. Serbia lacks depth and experience despite past successes. Nigeria, though dominant in Africa, struggles with consistency on the global stage.
