Clyburn: “It would be nice to have players from Europe playing on Team USA”

The desire of many Americans who compete in Europe was expressed by Will Clyburn in an interview he gave to the Turkish Eurohoops.

Her forward Virtus Bologna stated that he would like to see his compatriots who play in European teams wear the jersey of the national team of USAemphasizing that the good knowledge of basketball they have would help her Team USA in major events.

In detail what he said:

“Personally, I wouldn’t want to be part of any national team, the season is long enough. Instead, I prefer to enjoy the summer holidays with my family. That’s why I wouldn’t want to play in the national team. However, it would be nice if the US national team added at least 2-3 US players who play in Europe to the tournament roster.

If you look at previous years, you will see that even G-League players were selected for the national team. Instead of such players, it would be better to have US players on the team who are familiar with FIBA ​​rules and know basketball. Of course, I’m not saying that US players who play in Europe are better than others, but a good knowledge of basketball could be an advantage for the national team.”
