Expectations of the uber talented Canadian Men’s Senior National Team were high as the team headed to Germany last week to kick-start their journey to the FIBA World Cup. A roster that’s been highly anticipated, the DBB Super Cup tournament in Germany was a first look at what this team may look like going into the FIBA tournament.
Though missing one star as Jamal Murray continues to ramp up in Toronto, NBA stars RJ Barrett, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Lu Dort, Dillon Brooks, Kelly Olynyk and more suited up in three games over the last week.
Game one was against the host country, Germany, and coincidentally one of the newest Toronto Raptors — Dennis Schroder.
