Jonah Bolden skips the 2019 Basketball World Cup

Jonah Bolden has withdrawn his participation from the 2019 FIBA Basketball World Cup, citing personal reasons.

Basketball Australia made the announcement on Sunday (18/08), with Bolden set to return to Philadelphia, where he plays for the 76ers.

“My first thought is always with the player in these situations – having to withdraw from the national team is tough for anyone,” the head coach of Australia, Andrej Lemanis, said.
