Before Bronny James heads to the college ranks, he has one more stop to make in his prep career.
On Feb. 14, USA Basketball announced that James had been selected to represent the country at the Nike Hoop Summit, an all-star event in which Team USA goes against a select team comprised of the top basketball prospects with international ties.
The game, which features 26 of the biggest up-and-coming stars in basketball, comes less than two weeks after James made his mark in the McDonald's All-American Game.
Will James suit up for this year's Hoop Summit? Here's the latest on his availability and status for the event.
