Six-time WNBA All-Star talks about her role on Team USA, being a tourist in Paris, trading Olympic pins and more
PARIS — Seattle Storm guard, two-time WNBA champion and six-time WNBA All-Star Jewell Loyd is the latest player sharing insight into her life on and off the court through a video diary with Andscape during the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.
Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal and former G League Ignite forward Ron Holland participated in a monthly video and diary for the 2023-24 season. NBA players Draymond Green, Vince Carter, Trae Young, CJ McCollum, Fred VanVleet, De’Aaron Fox, Cade Cunningham, James Wiseman and Josh Jackson have participated in previous diaries.
In Part 3 of her video diary, Loyd talks about her different role in Paris with Team USA compared to in the WNBA, traveling with her girlfriend Téa Adams, being able to be a tourist in Paris during her downtime, her play in Game 1 against Japan, assessing Belgium going into Game 2, trading Olympic pins and more.
“It’s a mindset of you’re here and your role is different,” Loyd said. “Every time you’re on the court, the things you do help the team win, and that’s what I’m about — winning.
“It’s always interesting because your role is so different. So sometimes you can get in your head like, ‘I didn’t get enough shots, I didn’t do my job, I’m not good enough. What’s going on? Why didn’t coach play me? Why didn’t I do this?’ and all these things. Then you realize, ‘my 10 minutes, my 15 minutes, my 20 minutes, all these minutes are for us to win. That’s the end goal, to win a game.’ “
