Which of the nation's best high school underclassmen will don red, white and blue at the FIBA under-16 Men's Americas Championships in June?
USA Basketball released its list of 39 expected participants Thursday morning for its men's under-16 national team training camp in late May, where a 12-player team will be selected for the international tournament in Merida, Mexico June 5-11.
The selections — 25 freshmen and 14 sophomores — have already asserted themselves among the top high school basketball players in the country as underclassmen.
Players must be U.S. citizens born on or after January 1, 2007 to be eligible. Selections were made by USA Basketball's Men's Developmental National Team Committee led by USA men's team director Sean Ford.
A notable few of the selections are sons of former NBA players: Alijah Arenas (Gilbert Arenas), Tajh Ariza (Trevor Ariza), Jaxon Richardson (Jason Richardson) and Cameron and Cayden Boozer (Carlos Boozer), as well as Elijah Williams, son of Phoenix Suns coach Monty Williams.
