USA has a horrible team this year compared to what they used to have but these are still elite NBA players so most likely they will destroy whoever they go against, however it will not be like Angola-USA 60 point game type of situation anymore, it would be more like they are beating them by 10 points on average type of situation. More exhibition matches would have show us more info but the games about to start in 10 days or so, we can still wait.

Jayson Tatum, Kyle Kuzma, Jaylen Brown, Donovan Mitchell, Kemba Walker and some notable players who are currently at their prime and you called TEAM USA as a horrible team? Comparing it to their previous squad doesn't make any sense since obviously there are big differences.

Still, their lineup is deadly. Maybe the term you used is not appropriate.

That will be a waste run for Nigeria if a simple budget can't be fixed. They have an allocation for that, the problem is the release. Problems like that do really happened in another country as well but why just now when the tournament is just a few weeks to go before the tip-off.

They are undefeated in the qualifiers and might have a chance to advance to their bracket as I believed they can handle, at least, Russia, Argentina, and Korea.

I haven't followed the team but I feel that the team really is going to miss a big thing. This isn't just about the games that they have but it's about the pride of their country and the potential of their team.

I don't know about their officials or those people who's working with the sports commission on Nigeria. They should give consideration and process it as soon as possible before the proper date.

They successfully dominated their qualifying rounds, undefeated. So it's really a waste if these budget thing will not solve.

And just an update that their national team will now be able to play at the upcoming world cup.
