Power ranking USA teammates Austin Reaves should recruit to the Lakers

Austin Reaves unofficially kicked off his Team USA career on Monday night in an exhibition game against Puerto Rico. It was a strong showing off the bench for Reaves, who had nine points and was a first-half spark for the team.

Reaves and Team USA will move on from Las Vegas to Europe and Asia for further scrimmages before landing in the Philippines to start FIBA World Cup play at the end of the month. And as cool and important as this whole experience is on the court, the most important part of Team USA is the recruiting behind the scenes.
