Dawn Staley visits the U.S. Embassy with Guy Fieri and Wanda Sykes while at 2024 Paris Olympics
Dawn Staley continues to be busy at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
And the latest stop for the South Carolina women's basketball coach included a visit to the U.S. Embassy in Paris with Wanda Sykes, where the two met up with chef and host of Food Network's "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives" Guy Fieri. Staley also paid a visit to US Ambassador to France and Morocco Denise Campbell Bauer's house.
"Had the distinct pleasure of touring the amazing US Embassy here in Paris….along with visiting Ambassador Bauer in her beautiful home. Thankful for servicemen and women and all of those who have dedicated their lives to serve. Grateful for this experience," Staley wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter).

Staley's latest adventure over the pond comes after taking in the USA women's basketball 3x3 game in Paris on Tuesday with Sykes, one in which the United States — whose roster includes former LSU guard Hailey Van Lith and is coached by Staley's former college teammate Tammi Reiss — was upset by Germany 17-13.
And then you can't forget about Staley finding her love, and perhaps new obsession, for Mexican Coca-Cola Cherry in Paris, one in which led to Coca-Cola sending the Gamecocks coach a care package Wednesday. She has also made appearances at the U.S. Women's Basketball game on Monday to watch former South Carolina star A'Ja Wilson, watching Katie Ledecky compete in the pool and the U.S. Women's Water Polo team with Flavor Flav among other stops.
The three-time national championship coach is in Paris as part of a United States presidential delegation with First Lady Dr. Jill Biden.

Where will Staley be next?
You will have to see, but you can probably count on her showing up to the USA Basketball vs. South Sudan later today and Wilson's game tomorrow when the United States takes on Belgium.
