Cedi Osman has really picked up his play as of late for the Cleveland Cavaliers, as we’ve discussed for a while here at KJG. Later on this year, he’ll be a participant in the FIBA World Cup (which is in China this time around), while representing his home country of Turkey, and potentially be able to show that he’s even further along in his development as an NBA forward.
Osman is ready to compete at that stage, and seems ready to roll against Team USA. The 32-team tournament begins at the end of August, and both teams were placed in Group E, so Osman will have his chance, and he’s “really excited about it,” per Cleveland.
