This roster is at 19 players for training camp before the games begin in July. However, Coulibaly has a strong chance of sticking around and playing amongst the best French players this summer.
A trip to the Olympics would mean Coulibaly misses the Wizards Summer League action from July 7 to July 17, but that’s fine considering the increased level of competition he’d be playing and practicing against on a national stage.
