Team USA Basketball History

The history of the USA Basketball team dates back to the early years of basketball, which was invented in the United States in 1891. The United States men's national basketball team, also known as Team USA, has a rich and successful history in international basketball.

Team USA made its first appearance in an international competition at the FIBA World Championship in 1950. Since then, they have achieved numerous successes, including winning multiple Olympic gold medals, World Cup titles, and FIBA AmeriCup championships.
