Caitlin Clark has been selected for the 2026 USA Basketball Women’s National Team, earning a place on the squad for the upcoming FIBA Women’s Basketball World Cup in Germany. The selection marks an important moment in Clark’s international career after she missed the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Clark will be joined by a star-studded group that includes A’ja Wilson, Angel Reese and Paige Bueckers. Several players are set to make their World Cup debuts, giving the team a blend of established stars and emerging talent.
Her inclusion is particularly significant because of the enormous attention surrounding her rapid rise in professional basketball. Clark has become one of the most recognizable players in the women’s game, and her international debut is expected to generate substantial global interest.
The USA team will enter the World Cup aiming to maintain its position among the world’s dominant women’s basketball nations.
