SACRAMENTO – The Sacramento Kings' Keegan Murray will reportedly soon be sporting the Red, White & Blue.
As reported Thursday in the Athletic, Sacramento's sophomore stud has been invited to play for Team USA's Select Team next month in Las Vegas.
The Select Team is made up of young, rising NBA stars. The team will train with the current US National Team in preparation for the FIBA World Cup, which is happening across several countries in Asia in late August.
