I'm posting this for any other draft junkies like myself who are interested in getting a look at some of the future NBA talent in the pipeline.

Team USA is currently at work in the U19 FIBA World Championships in Crete from June 27 - July 5.  Team USA will give us a good look at the top 3 prospects in the 2017 draft (bring on that Nets pick swap!) featuring Josh Jackson, Jayson Tatum, and Harry Giles.  Additionally, there are some interesting guys from the 2016 talent pool such as Caleb Swanigan, Jalen Brunson and Alonso Trier.

For those interested the website features full replays of the games:

If you are really hardcore, there are also some top international prospects featured on the other countries teams as well (although no Dragan Bender for Croatia due to a sneaker dispute unfortunately), but I don't know that I am dedicated enough to sit through too many of those.

Semis today

Croatia is killing Turkey (+30 points mid 4th q) and next is Greece VS USA
I haven`t watched USA so i can`t make any predictions but a Greek win will be a boost my moral despirately needs now

I hope it will be more interesting than the first semi
