After a week of tryouts, incoming five-star freshman Cody Williams has been named to the official roster for the upcoming U19 FIBA World Cup.
The Americans will be in Debrecen, Hungary from June 24 to July 2. They will be in Group B and will face Madagascar, Slovenia and Lebanon in the qualifying round, then will presumably advance into the knockout stages to face challengers such as Spain, France and Serbia.
Team USA won the last U19 World Cup when Chet Holmgren and Kenneth Lofton Jr. outdueled Victor Wembanyama in Riga. This team will be expected to win again, as many players return from the U18 squad that won the 2022 Americas Championship.
