TEAM USA in Argentina

Don headed to Colorado Springs on May 27 to start training camp with 32 of the best 15 & 16 year old players from our country to put together the USA Junior National Team to compete at FIBA Americas in Bahia Blanca, Argentina.  June 3 I flew out to join him and the team in advance of the June 6 flight to Argentina.
