USA Basketball announced its 33-player training camp roster that will travel to Switzerland and compete in next month’s FIBA U19 World Cup on Tuesday.
This list of players is headlined by some of the EYBL circuit’s most skilled prospects and includes names like A.J. Dybantsa, Chris Cenac Jr., Koa Peat and Tajh Ariza.
The roster is made of up mostly high school players, but includes several rising college sophomores in LJ Cason (Michigan), Tony Duckett (San Diego), Tyrone Riley IV (San Francisco), Morez Johnson (Michigan), Daniel Jacobsen (Purdue), Royce Parham (Marquette) and Tyler Tanner (Vanderbilt).
Arizona’s Tommy Lloyd will be the head coach of the team, with Grant McCasland (Texas Tech), Micah Shrewsberry (Notre Dame), Hubert Davis (North Carolina), Nate Oats (Alabama) and Mark Pope (Kentucky) all serving as his assistants. Team USA will open its tournament on June 28 against Cameroon at 10:45 am ET.
