Looks like we got all the hopeful players on the roster. Only guys missing are:
Mathurin - Injured
Sharpe - injured but should be healthy by now so not sure...
Clarke - no interest in Team Canada I guess?
Boucher - no interest in Team Canada I guess?
Joseph - its a miss by Canada to not have him part of the tryouts at least

Great to see.
But can someone explain why the Scrubb brothers got camp invites and Cojo didn't?

Heckuva roster. Perimeter positions (1-3) are stacked with talent. Jeez.

That team is better than the scrub US Dream Team.

Melvin Ejim and Phil Scrubb...always on a Team Canada roster. In 2032...they'll still be on the roster.

Anybody know if Canada is getting a jersey re-design for the Olympics? I need some merch.

Apparently Boucher posted “no comment” on his instagram after the roster announcement so I’m guessing the no interest was on Canada’s end.

No quality bigs so hopefully we don't have to face a team like Serbia or France

He’s never played for Canada though, so I think its him.

Barrett, Brooks, Dort, SGA, Murray, Nembhard, Wiggins is a very impressive and deep guard/wing rotation.

Funny that RJ and Jamal didn't seem to bond after that exciting Nuggets-Raptors game a few months ago. They both had great games. Whereas RJ and Shai seemed very friendly after our game against OKC.
Instead, the post-game pic of note in Denver was Jontay and MPJ swapping jerseys. Ah, good times.

That's life... just because you share a commonality doesn't mean you'll be friends lol.

CoJo probably should've been offered a spot to tryout because he was one of the guys that committed back in 2022. That said, it's highly unlikely he'd make the roster as our G spots are STACKED. Still, it should've been a courtesy extended to him regardless.

Feels like a throwback to when the program was less professional than now. I know it's only a camp invite, but it's annoying better players don't get the opportunity.

To bad we didn't have 2 legit centres on our team.
SGA, Jamal, Wiggins, Brooks, KO
The bench minutes being eaten up by Dort, RJ, Nembhard, and a big.
