LILLE (France) - There are towering powerhouse ballers that love to swat shots, as well as electrifying guards who might be shorter in physical stature but still dominate games with their speed and skill.
Other players at the Women's Olympic Basketball Tournament Paris 2024 will be older and wiser with stacks of veteran know-how. In stark contrast, others are young and still taking their first footsteps at senior level.
You'll see them all when they take to the court at the Pierre Mauroy Stadium in Lille.
Youngest players at the Olympics
If anyone ever wondered whether some players are too young for an elite level event like the Games, then think again. These FIBA rising stars are ready to shine and show they deserve to be handed an opportunity and an Olympic debut.
Oldest players at the Olympics
Every locker room needs experience and there are some ballers who bring incredible Olympic track records - not least Lauren Jackson of Australia who is the oldest player in the women's competition. She is stepping out for her fifth edition of the Games, while Diana Taurasi is appearing at her sixth!
Tallest Players at the Olympics
The towering presence of the tallest ballers at the Games, doesn't only mean they will be out to block some shots. Top of this tallest chart is Xu Han and the China star has such a sweet touch and shooting range.
Shortest Players at Olympics
Short in height doesn't translate into short on impact. Just take chart leader Rui Machida of Japan who was the main driving force of her team's historic run to the Final at Tokyo 2020. She was unstoppable and broke the all-time game assists record. She will also be surrounded by sharp-shooting and lightning quick teammates, Mai Yamamoto and Nako Motohashi.
