OSU’s freshman point guard has received a training camp invite for USA Basketball ahead of the 2019 FIBA U19 World Cup.
The camp will take place at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado June 15-24. Invitees will compete to make the final Team USA roster that will be whittled down to 12. The World Cup begins June 29 in Heraklion, Greece.
“First and foremost, I’d like to thank God, my lord and savior, for putting me in this position and giving me this opportunity. Without his grace and his mercy none of this would be possible,” Likekele said in a release from OSU.
