The two sentences that use an apostrophe correctly in a plural possessive noun are:

  1. The basketball players’ lockers will be cleaned out on Friday.
  2. The United States’ national anthem is “The Star-Spangled Banner.”

The first sentence shows possession by multiple players (basketball players' lockers). The second sentence correctly indicates possession for the national anthem belonging to the United States.
