This Was An Extremely Difficult Decision As I Take Great Pride In Representing Our Country. I Know That I Owe It To My Usa Basketball Teammates To Be Totally Invested In The Experience. After Going Through Training Camp With Usab, I Realized I Could Not Fulfill My Responsibilities To The Team From Both A Time And Energy Standpoint. I Need To Take A Step Back And Take Some Time Away, Both Mentally And Physically In Order To Prepare For The Upcoming Nba Season. I Will Be Rooting For Usab And Look Forward To Future Opportunities With Them.
