What happened: Washington's representatives are split across two national teams. The tournament runs Sept. 4-13.

By the numbers: The trio averages a combined 35.4 points, 14.6 rebounds and 7.9 assists per game in 2026.

What to watch: Their group-stage roles will be the first thing to watch when play begins Friday.
