He has just reduced this list to 15 players and among the great absentees there are Mount Morris, OG Anunoby, Al-farouq Aminu Y Udoka AzubuikeBut the workforce is very attractive with 8 NBA players.
- Miye Oni (Utah Jazz)
- Kz Okpala (Miami Heat)
- Precious Achiuwa (Miami Heat)
- Jahlil Okafor (Detroit Pistons)
- Josh Okogie (Minnesota Timberwolves)
- Gabe Vincent (Miami Heat)
- Jordan Nwora (Milwaukee Bucks
- Chimezie Metu (Sacramento Kings)
- Ike Iroegbu (Elan Chalon, France)
- Michael Gbinije (BC Nevèżíe, Lithuania)
- Obi Emegano (Fuenlabrada, Spain)
- Calab Agada (Hapoel Be’er Sheva, Israel)
- Ekpe Udoh (RF Beijing, China)
- Stan Okoye (Gran Canaria, Spain)
- Chima Moneke (Orleans, France)
3 will have to be eliminated before the Olympics.
They will be in Group B which on paper is perhaps the least harsh with Australia, Germany and Italy.
