Chance The Rapper Spits New Verse in Nike USA Basketball Commercial

USA Basketball is currently blowing through the competition at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio. In a timely new Nike commercial titled "Unlimited Together," Chance The Rapper spits a Star Spangled Banner-inspired verse.

Throughout the Hiro Murai-directed short film, Chance delivers his never-before-heard song "We the People" over a piano-laced beat, which accompanies footage of the men's and women's teams. Chano raps, "We want a W, we tired of picking different sides/I got your jersey, just a different size/We all want you to be a buzzer beater/Find us a leader far from Silent Bob's and Cousin Skeeter's/Through the perilous fight, want you to be brave/We want us a hero, we need a teammate."

NBA superstars Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, DeMarcus Cousins and more feature prominently in the two-and-a-half minute clip. For the women's side, Brittney Griner, Diana Taurasi, Maya Moore and others appear in the advertisement. The YouTube caption states, "Nike celebrates the strength of unity and power of team with 'Unlimited Together,' a moving film featuring original lyrics from Chicago-born artist Chance the Rapper."

Both the men's and women's squads are expected to take home the gold medal in Rio. The men's team kicked off its Olympics with a 119-62 thrashing of China on Aug. 6. Durant, Cousins and Irving led the way with 25, 17 and 12 points respectively. In their second game, the men destroyed Venezuela 113-69, as Paul George, Jimmy Butler and KD dropped 20, 17 and 16 points respectively.
