Several UK targets make the first cut for the USA U17 team

The USA U18 just dominated the competition in Canada and the USA U17 will look to do the same in Argentina later this month.

The Americans made their first cut on Monday and a slew of UK targets made the cut. But many fans will notice that UK’s top target in 2019, James Wiseman, was absent from the 18-man list. Wiseman is injured and didn’t practice all weekend. In typical Wiseman fashion he still had to wow folks in attendance, even if he never picked up a basketball.

Wiseman measured in at over 7-feet, a 7-foot-6 wingspan and just over a 9-foot-3 standing reach.
