It’s one of the highest honors to wear Team USA on your chest in any sort of capacity.
Jalen Suggs has been named to the 2024 USA Basketball Men’s Select Team. The purpose of this team is to help prepare the senior national team for the Paris Olympics. Suggs will be heading down to Las Vegas for training camp next week and will be reunited with Mark Few.
Orlando’s head coach Jamahl Mosley will serve as head coach of the Select Team so Suggs will have all of his leaders (former and current) around him. The biggest standout on the roster has to be Duke’s Copper Flagg who is the only collegiate player named.
