Orlando Magic coach Steve Clifford was in Las Vegas in early August as Team USA prepared for its ill-fated World Cup run.
Steve Clifford might have been there otherwise, but he had a reason to watch carefully as Jonathan Isaac was participating with the Select Team, the group of young players used to funnel players into the Team USA system and train and scrimmage against the main team.
Jonathan Isaac had a great showing at the U.S. camp. He scored 12 points in the Blue-White Scrimmage at the end of the week, showing more confidence on the ball and his defensive acumen.
