Why the Canadian men's basketball team is poised to end its 24-year Olympic drought

16.06.2023 - 05:12 cbc.ca

CBC Sports' Bring It In series is back for another season, bringing Canadians in-depth sports analysis, discussion and debate.

Hosted by Morgan Campbell, the first four episodes are available now on CBC Gem and CBC Sports' YouTube channel. The season premiere, titled "The Rise of Canadian Basketball", examines the state of basketball in Canada and whether Canada's men's team will finally end its 24-year-Olympic drought.

Campbell analyzes Canada's growing NBA presence, whether that NBA talent will lead to an Olympic berth in 2024, and features interviews with Canadian NBA player Chris Boucher and men's national team general manager Rowan Barrett.

Campbell points out that with a record 22 Canadians on NBA opening day rosters this past season, Canada is the second most represented nation in the league.
