According to Michael Grange of Sportsnet, Boston Celtics forward Oshae Brissett will not participate in the upcoming FIBA World Cup to rehab an injury.
Brissett was initially slated to play for Team Canada this summer, but an apparent injury will keep him sidelined. Though there has been no official word on the severity or specifics of Brissett’s ailment, Doug Smith of the Toronto Star revealed that Brissett is dealing with a knee issue.
The 25-year-old already has a history of knee injuries. He broke his knee at just 15 years old, changing his career trajectory.
