OT: As the NBA free agency madness subsides, attention shifts to the preparation of the different national teams for the upcoming FIBA World Cup in China this August. Team USA is still the favorite, but the growing number of training camp withdrawals might be a cause for concern. Or nah?
UPDATED:
Current Team USA training camp roster:
Guards: Lowry, K. Walker, Mitchell, Smart
Forwards: Middleton, Tatum, H. Barnes, Kuzma, Tucker, J. Brown, Randle, Th. Young, Harrell
Centers: Drummond, B. Lopez, M. Turner, Mason Plumlee
Players who have withdrawn: AD, Harden, Beal, McCollum, E. Gordon, T. Harris, Z. Williamson, Lillard, Love
Looks like this line-up needs "help" on the defensive end. They also need shooters to replace the likes of Harden, Beal, McCollum.
