Mike Boynton will help select the next crop of talent to play for USA Basketball.
Oklahoma State’s coach, Boynton will go down to Fort Worth June 20-22 to help evaluate and select players for the 2021 U19 World Cup in Latvia. Although Boynton won’t join the team in Europe as a traditional assistant, his inclusion in this evaluation process is still quite the accomplishment for the 39-year-old coach.
The goal for Boynton and other coaches will be to trim the list of 27 camp-goers down to the 12-man roster bound for Latvia.
In some years, this could be a pseudo-recruiting opportunity for coaches, but all 27 players invited to this year’s camp are either in college or committed or signed with a school.
