Though yes, we do have players such as Bird, Taurasi, Fowles who are in the latter stages of their careers, I don't think we need to be too concerned with the future of USA basketball. I suspect the 2020 Olympics will be the last hurrah for many of these veterans, who have had legendary careers, and I think American women's basketball will still have a star studded roster to choose from afterwards.

Breanna Stewart isn't playing because of an Achilles injury she had last spring. One would think Ionescu's performance will put her on the short list for a future national roster very soon, probably Hebard as well. A'ja Wilson, Kelsey Plum, Jewell Loyd, and Chiney Ogwumike are all still in their 20's as well.
