Are Both Trail Blazers on Team Australia Locks to Make Olympic Roster?

A pair of Portland Trail Blazers players are looking to ply their wares for Team Australia in the 2024 Paris Olympics this summer: rookie center Duop Reath and veteran swingman Matisse Thybulle. Olgun Uluc of ESPN votes in the affirmative for both cases, though he has some reservations about Thybulle following a shaky World Cup run last summer for the Boomers. Uluc raves about Reath's ability to fill out the frontcourt while also offering some spacing as a stretch big. Both Reath and Thybulle were members of Australia's bronze medal-winning group at the "2020" Tokyo Olympics (which actually transpired in 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic).
