The Tokyo Olympics are right around the corner and while Denver Nuggets fans would usually be keeping an eye out for Serbia and Nikola Jokic, this year, their attention should be on the Nigerian and Argentinian National Teams.
Monte Morris has committed to join the Nigerian men’s basketball team, the D’Tigers, in the upcoming Olympics, joining fellow NBA players like Spencer Dinwiddie, OG Anunoby, Jahlil Okafor, and Miye Oni to name a few.
