Coach Hopkins Named as Assistant for Team USA U19 World Cup

The Huskies are waiting on a certain local 5-star prospect to commit to Coach Hopkins’ talents but USA Basketball isn’t waiting around. It was announced this afternoon that Hopkins will serve as one of two assistant coaches for the Team USA U19 World Cup this summer.

Extremely honored and humbled to represent our country and help coach at the @FIBA U19 World Cup in Crete this summer. Looking forward to the opportunity to reclaim gold! #USAMBU19 https://t.co/n0P4XSgybD
