Nik Stauskas was acquired by the Philadelphia 76ers this offseason in a trade from the Sacramento Kings. After a disappointing first year, Stauskas is undoubtedly eager to make his name known with the Philadelphia 76ers.
On the other hand, the Sixers were undoubtedly eager to make their name known on the United States FIBA roster and have faces competing for the States this summer. Unfortunately, that didn’t happen, as no Sixers were chosen for Team USA.
Stauskas, however, was a player picked up for a FIBA team in his home country, Team Canada.
