The five players released were Malik Pope, Silas Melson, Eric Paschall, TJ Leaf, and Seventh Woods. That leaves Briscoe, Jalen Brunson, Jawun Evans, Terrance Ferguson, Riley LaChance, Jayson Tatum, Allonzo Trier, Justin Bibbs, Brekkott Chapman, Vince Edwards, Harry Giles, Josh Jackson, LJ Peak, Chinanu Onauku, Caleb Swanigan, and Tom Welsh.
Training resumes for the 16 finalists tonight. Only 12 will make the final roster that will compete in the World Championships in Greece later this month. No word on when that cut will come (one would assume tonight as it’s the end of training camp), but for now, Briscoe is safe.
