NextImg:Nets forward Mikal Bridges commits to play for Team USA at FIBA World Cup: report

Brooklyn Nets forward Mikal Bridges has committed to play for Team USA at this summer’s FIBA World Cup, according to reports.

The Athletic first reported Bridges’ addition to the team.

Bridges saw his scoring more than double after joining Brooklyn as part of the Kevin Durant trade, averaging 26.1 points in his 27 games with the Nets. He also averaged 23.5 points a game in the team’s first-round playoff loss to the Philadelphia 76ers.

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards, Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves, Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton and Milwaukee Bucks’ forward Bobby Portis have also pledged to play for Team USA.

USA Basketball managing director Grant Hill, coach Steve Kerr and general manager Sean Ford are putting the team together.

The squad will convene in Las Vegas for training camp in early August before playing a number of exhibition games. The World Cup begins Aug. 25 and will have games in Japan, the Philippines and Indonesia.
