2019 Gonzaga Bulldogs recruit Anton Watson did not make the final roster of 12 for the USA Men’s U-18 National Team.
Watson, who hails from Gonzaga Prep, survived the first cut earlier this week, beating out other heralded Washington recruits such as Jaden McDaniel and Kevin Porter Jr.
It is a disappointing finish for Watson, but a fantastic indicator of his skill level and talent to even make it this far. Watson has had a junior year for the ages, helping lead G-Prep to a 4A state championship and an undefeated season, averaging close to 22 points and nine rebounds per game.
