Jamaican basketball team to play two warm up games against Canada

Jamaica’s senior men’s basketball team will leave the island today for a two-game practice series against Canada in Toronto.

The team dubbed the JamRockerZ, will be without the services of a trio of top players, Ryan Hollins, Patrick Ewing Jnr and Jerome Jordan but still includes former Muschett high star Samardo Samuels who recently signed with Italian outfit Armani Milano to play in the Euroleague.

The 11-member squad also includes Weyinmi Rose, Adrian Uter, Akeem Scott, Durand Scott, Garfield Blair, Dyland Ennis and is further completed by four local based players Christopher Walker, Michael Rogers, Lynford Brown and Adrian Forbes.

The games against their Canadian counterparts will take place on Thursday and Saturday at the American Airlines Centre.

The team is scheduled to return on Sunday and will continue camp in Montego Bay before leaving for Venezuela where they participate in the FIBA Americas Championship.

The Jamaican team qualified for the Americas tournament after finishing third at last year’s Centro-Basket tournament in Puerto Rico.

They have been drawn in Group A alongside Uruguay, Canada, Puerto Rico, and Brazil.

The top four teams at the Americas tournament will advance to the 2014 FIBA World Basketball Championships in France
