Report: Cade Cunningham, Chet Holmgren Headline Team USA Training Camp Invite List

Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham, Houston Rockets guard Jalen Green, Sacramento Kings forward Keegan Murray and Oklahoma City Thunder forwards Chet Holmgren and Jalen Willams will be part of Team USA training camp for the 2023 FIBA World Cup, according to Shams Charania and Joe Vardon of The Athletic.

All five will be part of the U.S. Select Team, a group of players that can travel to the Philippines as replacements if a player on Team USA gets injured before the start of the World Cup.

The United States will send a strong group of young players to the FIBA World Cup, which gets underway next month. The roster will be led by the likes of Mikal Bridges, Jaren Jackson Jr. and Anthony Edwards as most bonafide superstars take a break from international play between Olympic cycles.

The vast majority of the roster will be getting their first try at international play on the U.S. national team, which has won four straight Olympic golds.

The World Cup has been a more inconsistent endeavor, with the United States crashing and burning for a seventh-place finish in 2019. It was the United States' worst performance in a men's international basketball competition, with their previous worst being a sixth-place finish at the 2002 World Cup.

The Team USA basketball program is in the midst of an overhaul, with Gregg Popovich stepping away from his coaching duties in favor of Steve Kerr. Popovich led the United States for one Olympic cycle after Mike Krzyzewski stepped down from his post.
