USAB women's team introduced during halftime of men's exhibition against Nigeria


The United States women's Olympic team was introduced during the halftime of the USA men's team's exhibition game against Nigeria on Monday night in Houston.

The women's team is fresh from a four-game sweep of its USA Basketball Showcase, which included wins over France, Canada, and Australia.


The men's team won over Nigeria, 110-66.

Both squads shall now head to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil for the 2016 Olympic Games.


The women's team is targeting a sixth straight Olympic gold medal while the men's team is trying to go three in a row in the Olympic basketball tournament.

The women's team was also introduced a week ago during the men's team's match against China at the Staples Center as both teams were in California.
