According to Shams Charania of The Athletic, RJ Barrett will not play for Canada in the upcoming Basketball World Cup.

Barrett will skip the tournament in order to recover from a mild calf strain he sustained during the Summer League of Las Vegas.

Tristan Thompson will also not play for Canada in the World Cup.

Barrett will join Canada for training camp and team activities in Toronto. He's had a decorated young national team career — being one of youngest players to represent Canada, participating in competition the last four summers and helping the program qualify for World Cup. https://t.co/K54giU0tUx
