TAMPA, Fla. - Three-time Olympians Natalie Achonwa, Miranda Ayim and Kim Gaucher will lead Canada s women s basketball team in its quest for a medal at the Tokyo Olympics.
The experienced trio, plus WNBA players Kia Nurse and Bridget Carleton, were named to the team which clinched its Tokyo berth way back in February of 2020, going undefeated in its qualifying tournament in Belgium. Some of my favourite basketball memories have come from proudly representing Canada at the Olympic Games, said Gaucher. There is nothing greater than having the opportunity to pull on the red and white jersey with Canada across your chest. And to be able to do that for a third time on the world s largest sporting stage is something I never imagined.
