Team USA men's basketball is holding its pre-Olympics camp in Las Vegas, which has temperatures easily soaring into triple digits. 

Although the practices take place inside on UNLV's campus, plenty of fans are waiting outside in the heat wave trying to get a glimpse or an autograph from one of the dozen Americans headed to Paris. 

NBA stars such as Kevin Durant, Anthony Edwards, and Devin Booker did not stop to mingle with the fans. Team USA general manager Grant Hill did not either. 


Golden State Warriors legend Steph Curry did stop to sign autographs and greet the fans in the 114-degree heat on Tuesday. 

Curry can be seen signing one item per fan with his Team USA gear on, as well as a bucket hat to help shield from the sun.

Team USA is heavily expected to win gold in Paris in what is likely the final Olympics for LeBron James, Curry, Durant, and Jrue Holiday. 

Every player is shown walking straight to the Team USA buses in the video except James, Jayson Tatum and Joel Embiid. 

Curry is arguably the most accomplished American basketball player to never play for Team USA at the Olympics. 

The Warriors star was in consideration for the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio, but took himself out of a list of possible roster members to recover from knee and ankle injuries. 

Meanwhile, his teammate Draymond Green has won two Gold medals with Team USA but was not selected to the 2024 squad heading to Paris. 

Team USA's first exhibition game is Wednesday night against Canada, with its first Olympic contest on July 28 against a Nikola Jokic-led Serbian team. The Americans finish group play against South Sudan and Puerto Rico.
