Duke basketball signee Patrick Ngongba II and a couple of Blue Devil targets are among 18 finalists to play in Buenos Aires.
Duke basketball head coach Jon Scheyer won't be with the USA Basketball Men's U18 National Team when it heads to Buenos Aires for the FIBA AmeriCup, June 3-9. But Scheyer is at the training camp in Colorado Springs, Colo., this weekend as a court coach helping the squad's head coach, Arizona's Tommy Lloyd, decide on the 12-man collection for that upcoming international showcase.On Saturday afternoon, the coaches dwindled the 28 invitees down to 18 finalists.
But Ngongba, a 6-foot-11, 235-pound center out of Paul VI Catholic High School who ranks No. 25 overall on the 247Sports 2024 Composite and is one of six pieces to Duke basketball's top-ranked recruiting haul, might not be the only future Blue Devil in that bunch.They are Highland School five-star wing Nate Ament, who sits at No.
