Reports are coming out of players being invited to play for the select team this summer.

LaVine has also been invited, but I can't find the link

I know Marcus was invited a few years ago, and reports were that he absolutely destroyed the others, especially defensively. Is there precedent of being invited again? Or is it a 1 time thing? Or did Marcus's poor shooting season turn off USA basketball?
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

you vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about

Maybe so. But he will also try to get kd here this summer, if the camp is during early free agency
