Kids Go Adorably Bonkers Meeting The U.S. Olympic Basketball Team

They are FANS.

Like '60s teens reacting to the Beatles, these young fans did not hold back when the U.S. men's Olympic basketball team was introduced in New York City on Monday.

In the clip above, a Kevin Durant sighting and just the possibility of seeing Carmelo Anthony send the youngsters to ecstatic heights. (You don't even need to care about hoops in any shape or form to appreciate their joy.)

The 12-man roster for the Rio de Janeiro Games doesn't include LeBron James and Stephen Curry, among others, but there is still plenty of star wattage to go around.

Just ask these kids.
