India has one of the youngest teams in the tournament, with 8 of their players born in the 1990s. The turban guy, Amjyot Singh, plays in Spain I believe and despite the hairy face is only 21 years old. But of course all eyes were on the 18-year-old benchwarmer giant Satnam Singh Bhamara. I don't think he's NBA material, but when you are this big and still able to run, there's a good chance you can become a good player in Asia one day.
PG Mansour Elhadary is a new face of the aging Qatari squad. The guy is very little but knows how to play. Is he a Qatari native?
Jordan, the young center Ahmad Aldwairi (210cm, 1993) has good potential. The one impressive player, however, is 1990-born 205cm Mohammed Hussein, very good rebounder and already a star.
Korea also is very young and this is great for their future. Big guys 1991-born Kim Jongkyu and 1994-born Lee Jonghyun are going to be very good and are already getting a lot of playing time against Iran and China. The perimeter young guys I'm not very familiar with yet, but the fact they are playing good minutes against Iran and China is already a good indication of their abilities.
Who are some of the younger players that have impressed you from this tournament?
