We’ve spent a lot of words on the Porter brothers, Michael Jr. and Jontay, but Mizzou will have another blue-chip freshman in uniform this winter as well: Jeremiah Tilmon. He’ll be hoping to don a USA jersey soon, too.
Missouri basketball's Jeremiah Tilmon has a chance to play basketball within spitting distance of Egypt's Great Pyramid of Giza.
To get there, the incoming freshman will have to outplay at least 16 of the 28 players invited to Colorado Springs for USA Men's U19 World Cup team tryouts June 18-25.
As the 2013 and 2015 FIBA U19 World Champion, the United States will look for a third-consecutive gold medal at the July 1-9 event in Cairo, Egypt.
