Tyrese Maxey has made it through all the cuts, and is a member of the USA Basketball U18 team.
Maxey will now be one of 12 players to suit up for the United States and travel to Canada to compete for a gold medal later this week in FIBA competition.
The 6-3 Kentucky commit will join 2019 UK targets Matthew Hurt (a 6-9 forward) and Cole Anthony (a 6-2 guard). They will be coached by Kansas Jayhawks head coach Bill Self, who is also recruiting Anthony and Hurt. Duke is currently the favorite in Anthony’s crystal ball, while Kansas is currently the favorite in Hurt’s crystal ball.
