Never mind Avv - its good to start these types of discussions early anyway.
The 12-man team to take on NZ in the qualifiers was;
Adam Gibson, AJ Ogilvy, Aleks Maric, Aron Baynes, Brad Newley, Damian Martin, David Barlow, Joe Ingles, Mark Worthington, Matt Nielsen, Matthew Dellavedova, Patty Mills.
Injuries aside, there will likely only be 2-3 changes to the team shown above. Two automatic changes will be the inclusions of Andrew Bogut and David Andersen. Nate Jawai will likely be included in any training squad, so there's plenty of competition for big man spots. AJ Ogilvy and Aron Baynes probably will be the unlucky losers in this battle.
Other than those guys, Daniel Kickert will probably get looked at again, and in the NBL, the best three Aussie performers this year (aside from those already in the above team) arguably have been Cam Tragardh, Julian Khazzouh and Peter Crawford who will all get a look in.
Crawford is the interesting one for mine. He's in career best form at 17ppg, shooting 48% from deep. The Boomers probably lacked a little bit in overall scoring punch and three-point shooting, so he could be a smokey for the final 12 to go to London.
Brett Brown always likes to throw a couple of young guys into the squad, so college guys like Hugh Greenwood, Anthony Drmic and Brock Motum could round out the squad.
Interesting times ahead for the Boomers!
