USA Men's National Team Recap: Day 2

July 21, 2010 • Las Vegas, Nev.

The second day of practice for the USA Basketball Men's National Team saw the players continue to gel, brought even greater competition from the USA Select Team and overall it was a very good day. We've put together a few video clips of USA head coach Mike Krzyzewski talking about several topics, including the current culture of USA Basketball, Q&As with two-time Olympic gold medalist Jason Kidd and current USA team member Kevin Love, a photo gallery and a quick video clip of USA Select Team forward Howard Thompkins, a 2009 USA U19 World Championship Team gold medalist. Needless to say, it was a pretty good day in Las Vegas for everyone involved.
