BYU Forward Gideon George will have a chance to play on the world’s biggest stage as he was invited to training camp with the Nigerian Basketball National Team for Olympic team tryouts.
A dream come true. Gideon George came from the outdoor courts of Minna and Owerri Nigeria, to New Mexico JC and now BYU.
Next week, he will be in camp with the Nigerian National Team for Olympic team tryouts.
Amazing. @GideonOmohkudu
