USA Basketball has announced its roster for the upcoming AmeriCup qualifying games, with several seasoned NBA players set to represent the team.
Team USA’s lineup will include well-known NBA veterans as they prepare to take on Puerto Rico and the Bahamas in games scheduled for November 22 and November 25 in Washington, D.C.
Leading the team’s frontcourt are longtime NBA forwards Robert Covington and Keita Bates-Diop, who bring a wealth of experience to the squad. Adding further depth to the roster is veteran center Frank Kaminsky, rounding out a strong core of NBA talent.
In addition to these established NBA players, the roster includes several athletes currently competing in the NBA G League.
This group of players includes Henry Ellenson, Dusty Hannahs, Nate Hinton, Jahmi’us Ramsey, Chasson Randle, Javonte Smart, David Stockton, Paul Watson, and Malik Williams, each bringing their own skills and competitive experience to the team.
Earlier in the qualifiers, Team USA split their games with Cuba, winning one and losing one, and now looks ahead to a pair of away games in February against Puerto Rico and the Bahamas.
The stakes are high, as the top three teams from this group will move on to the AmeriCup tournament set to take place in August in Nicaragua.
