Using NBA Analytics to Select Team USA
Based on our analytics from the 2014-2015 season, these are the 12 NBA players who should play in the Rio Olympics in 2016.

Stephen Curry (20.5 nERD)

Stephen Curry's season probably couldn't have been much better. He was the league MVP, he won an NBA Championship, and he led the league in our nERD metric at 20.5. He's one of multiple point guards that have a shot at making Team USA's roster, but his shooting skill, ball-handling and passing ability make him a lock to make the team, and probably start, too. With the shortened three-point line in international play, Curry will be one of the deadliest players on the floor.
