MELBOURNE, Australia — Ten players from Australia's Tokyo 2020 bronze medal-winning side have been named in an extended 22-man squad for the Paris Olympics. They include Patty Mills, Joe Ingles, Josh Green, Dante Exuma and Jock Landale. There are 10 NBA-based players in coach Brian Goorjian's squad, which also includes Josh Giddey and Dyson Daniels. The squad will be trimmed to 12 players before a pre-Games training camp in July. Brooklyn Nets point guard Ben Simmons was not named in the squad. He is still recovering from back surgery. Simmons has never played at the Olympics for Australia but said he had planned to in Paris before his most recent injury.
