Team USA's quest for the gold has begun and they've assembled an talented roster that resembles the Avengers but what is every player's ideal MCU counterpart?

Steph Curry- Hawkeye

Perhaps it's too easy to compare the greatest shooter in NBA history to the greatest shooter in the MCU, with Hawkeye never missing but we'll do it anyway. Curry might not be as important to Team USA as he is to the Golden State Warriors, but his aerial assault will prove incredibly valuable, especially with the shorter FIBA 3-point line.

Compare that to Hawkeye, who isn't the most-needed character but the Avengers are undefeated when he suits up for them. Let's hope Curry can match that success with Team USA and deliver them the gold.

Jrue Holiday- Black Widow

Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday isn't a traditional star but instead does many things well, making him a valuable part of any team that he is on. He has already won two championships on two different teams in the last three years, with him providing his teams with terrific defense, playmaking, and timely shooting—anything that is necessary to win.

Compare that with Black Widow, aka Natasha Romanoff, who is the ultimate team player. With her actions keeping the Avengers together in Avengers Endgame and then sacrificing to make sure they got the W. Relatively speaking, Holiday and Romanoff are one and the same.
