The 1976 United States women's Olympic basketball team competed in the Games of the XXI Olympiad in Montreal, Canada, representing the United States of America.

It was the first time the United States had fielded a women's basketball team in the Olympics.

The team was led by Cal State Fullerton's women's basketball coach Billie Moore and had four future Hall of Famers on the roster: Ann Meyers, Nancy Lieberman, Lusia Harris, and Pat Summitt (then called Pat Head).

Despite finishing second place behind the Soviet Union, the team is considered one of the most important in basketball history, paving the way for women's basketball to flourish in the United States.

As a unit, the team was elected to the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame in 2023.
