The Dream Team II didn't actually play in the Olympics — they repped USA Basketball at the 1994 World Championships, two years after The Dream Team beat Angola and others to win righteous gold.

I'd remembered that Mitch Richmond, then a Sacramento King, appeared on Dream Team III in the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, but our fair town had a brush with international infamy before then.
The highlight of KJ's non-Olympic but still patriotic sojourn was definitely this celebration after a Derrick Coleman dunk.
