On June 28, the USA National Team departed Allen Fieldhouse at 6:15 a.m. to Kansas City International Airport. From there the squad flew to Detroit where there was a two-hour layover before boarding a multi-level plane for Seoul-Incheon, Korea, for a 12-plus hour flight (approximately 6,650 miles). Sitting on a plane for more than 12 hours, the student-athletes participated in numerous activities such as muscle stimulators and massage bars to assist with recovery.

The USA National Team is scheduled to take the Korea Train Express from Seoul to Gwangju with an arrival time of 2 a.m. on Tuesday, June 30. Gwangju is 14 hours ahead of the Central Time Zone in Kansas. Scheduled for Tuesday is a USA team orientation and practice in preparation for the July 3-14 Games.

LJW Stock Watch: NBA Draft


“Brothers.”

In the middle of a hectic NBA draft media day, Kansas one-and-done Kelly Oubre Jr. made it a point to mention the relationship and brotherhood he shared with his teammates at the University of Kansas.

As a reporter, it was my job was to see if I could get a quote from Oubre about what he thought of the team. I expected to engage in a brief conversation, and maybe get Oubre talking about the team’s chances in the Big 12 or NCAA Tournament.

Instantly, Oubre cracked a smile.

“Yeah, yeah yeah,” Oubre said, showing a little excitement in his voice. “We got that win yesterday [against Canada]. First win of the year.”

I followed up and asked him about Frank Mason III and how he played, and that was all it took. Oubre was off to the races.

“I feel like Frank would be great in the NBA, honestly,” he said. “You can see it in how Frank is relentless. He can’t be stopped because he has that mindset where he’s coming from nothing… He’s going to be the key to our season.”

Oubre then joked about Mason’s ability to get to the free throw line, and even threw up his arms to simulate how Mason is able to draw fouls. At that point, there was no stopping Oubre. The conversation just continued to flow, from Oubre’s relationship with Mason to his relationship with the team.

“We’re all brothers. We’re brothers for life,” he said. “Even though we were only together for a year, we created a bond that was something special. It will never go away.”
