This time next week, John Calipari will be at the United States Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado for the U19 World Cup Team training camp. Calipari and his assistants will have eight days to evaluate and coach the 28 camp attendees before the group is narrowed down to a 12-man World Cup roster for competition play in the 2017 FIBA World Cup in Cairo next month.
I’m here now to say let’s save everyone the hassle and select the team without spending all that in Colorado. We can build Cal’s best team right now. So let’s do it…
DESMOND BANE, Guard, TCU (Sophomore)
Leading off our alphabetical order of training campers is reigning NIT champion Desmond Bane of TCU.
