USA Basketball President Jerry Colangelo will remain patient with finalizing the Team USA roster ahead of the Olympics. USA Basketball will conduct a minicamp as early as July 1st in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll cut to the chase because people are asking me, \u2018A lot of teams are out (of the playoffs) \u2013 are you going to get early commitments from certain people?\u2019 \u201d Colangelo told USA TODAY. \u201cThat\u2019s not the way we\u2019re going to deal with this. We have interest in all of them. There\u2019s a lot of variables, and so we\u2019re going to do inventory after the first round. There\u2019ll be a number of players who we have interest in that conceivably are available after the first round. There\u2019s no rush because we have the flexibility.\u201d<\/p>\n
Colangelo could possibly hold a spot for a few players who reach the Conference Finals and beyond.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
