    The US team 14 finalists are here .
    Quite surprisingly, the Harrison twins weren't selected, though they already earned international experience having won this year's Tourcoing tournament with team USA.
    Later addition Austin Nichols (6-9 PF 2013 class) who is among the 14 finalists, played at the Albert Schweitzer tournament this year finishing 3rd in scoring for US team with 11.2PPG (50%FG) and first in blocks with 1.2.

      I can't believe that the Harrisons didn't make the cut- I'm guessing they had some other obligations? I'm not familiar with every single name on this roster but I know most of them and I'm not that impressed with this team on paper. Hopefully Billy Donovan can get them to play to their potential.

        17 Canadian hopefuls currently training in Toronto were split in two squads that met yesterday, the White team winning over the Red in a defensive game 56-54.
        The winning basket was scored by guard Tyler Ennis. Leading scorers 6-9 PF Trey Lyles for the winners and SF Andrew Wiggins for the Red team. Both are of 2014 class and play in the US, as well as Tyler Ennis who is 2013.

            US final team announced.

            PF Austin Nichols and C Joel James were the last cuts.

            Now, this team lacks a true center and above all big men (over 6-8/2.03)...

            Final roster here.

                        In the tournament opener USA dominated Virgin Islands 105-42.
                        For US team Shaq Goodwin 30 pts, Stokes 14, Randle and Sulaimon 12, Layman 10 reb, and all players scoring except Sam Dekker.
                        USA to reduce turnovers (21) and improve FT (57.1%).

                            You can watch the games online at fibaamericas.com Right now Canada is up 43-17 against Puerto Rico. Canada have a very nice team including Andrew Wiggins.

                              I think Dekker was injured, I saw someone's tweet telling him to get well and saying that hopefully he will play in the next game.

                              Canada looking impressive.

                                Yeah really, but just when Wiggins, Lyles, Ennis and few others are in, otherwise it's an ordinary team, see the 2nd half with Puerto Rico.
                                Trey Lyles had 17pts+16reb in the win tonight (77-51).
