WNBA superstar Breanna Stewart, a three-time Olympic gold medalist, is drawing inspiration from Team USA's record 12 gold medals at the 2026 Milan Cortina Games. She anticipates the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics will be an extraordinary event. Stewart shared her thoughts while discussing her partnership with Throne Sport Coffee, becoming the brand's first female athlete ambassador.
Stewart described the feeling of standing on the Olympic podium, seeing the flag rise and hearing the national anthem, as pure satisfaction and justification for the hard work. "It's just a goosebump feeling no matter how many times you do it. Just the pride and knowing you’re representing something bigger than yourself always comes through full circle."
The Olympics also provided an opportunity for Americans to learn about sports they don't typically follow. Stewart noted her own increased interest in events like bobsledding and curling, emphasizing the shared desire to cheer on Team USA and witness the athletes' pride and passion.
Looking ahead to LA28, Stewart is eager for the U.S. to host. "To have that home crowd behind us is going to be something people haven’t felt in a long, long time and I’m excited to say I’ll be feeling that, too." She also highlighted her partnership with Throne Sport Coffee, a brand that offers a healthy caffeine boost with added protein, fitting seamlessly into her demanding schedule as an athlete and mother.
