Washington Huskies Legend Named to Women's World Cup Roster
Kelsey Plum will suit up for Team USA in the 2026 FIBA World Cup.
The Washington Huskies, led by former women's basketball star Kelsey Plum, have bolstered their roster with new talent and are aiming to achieve their best season in a decade. Plum, a five-time WNBA All-Star and multiple Olympic gold medalist, was recently signed by the Phoenix Mercury. She will join 12 other players on Team USA's roster for the FIBA Women's World Cup, which begins in September.
Plum, who previously led the Huskies to the Final Four in 2017, is making a strong statistical comeback after recovering from a leg injury, averaging 23.3 points per game with high shooting percentages and adding assists, rebounds, and steals.
