Team USA will have just two more tune-up games before a trip to the Philippines for the upcoming FIBA World Cup.
Coming off a win in a real test against Spain on Sunday, Steve Kerr’s Team USA will face Greece on Friday morning in Abu-Dhabi. While Giannis Antetokounmpo won’t be on the floor, Team USA will have to deal with his brother, Thanasis on Friday.
During Sunday’s win over a solid Spain squad, New York’s Jalen Brunson led the way with 21 points. Memphis’ Jaren Jackson Jr. added 14 points as Kerr’s squad moved to 3-0 in pre-FIBA World Cup exhibition games.
