From quite a few media articles I have read, they are predicting the Boomers 12 v Team USA.
Simmons
Mills
Bogut
Baynes
Ingles
Delly
Exum
Maker
Bolden
Broekhoff
Mathiang
Motum
Obviously this can change. I think it's a pretty close, if not correct for 2019.
Thoughts?

Not sure who creek gets in ahead of? Also Creek doesn;t shoot the 3 well enough to be considered when we have other better athletes/players with similar limitations (Simmons, Exum, Bolden, Maker)
So we can't carry another sub par 3pt shooter on the bench when we really need shooting as teams will just sit in a zone and we'll be relying on Patty, Ingles & Broekoff to shoot us our of trouble and i'm not sure all 3 can be on the court together.

Lock in Simmons, Mills, Ingles, Baynes, Dellavedova, Maker, Bolden and Broekhoff.
For Exum and Bogut it will depend a lot on fitness especially Bogut ( where will he play 2018/19).
Creek, Adel and Lual-Acil are all a chance.
Simmons
Mills
Ingles
Bolden
Baynes
Delly or Exum
SG (whoever the best shooter is at the time)
Broekhoff
Maker or Motum
Bogut
Delly or Exum
Mathiang
Maker struggling for time in nba now, not certain he's the lock everyone thinks he is.
Need some NBL players in there so NBL gets promotional benefit out of this too.

Creek will get the gig i think.
Argument about 3 point shooters is crazy, we have plenty amongst our group and Simmons doesn't shoot the 3 either.
Creek is athletic, strong and fast - he will get a min or two.
1 of Lisch, Goulding, Creek, Sobey, Goulding, Gliddon, Mccarron
Thybulle might get that sg spot in the future
Duel citizen USA/AUS.
On the NBA mock draft for 2019.
Defensive player of the year PAC 12.
Will be an interesting guy to follow.
if Adel has a good senior season at Louisville and gets drafted, he may move ahead of creek. He has a much better 3 pt shot, jump shot, longer at 6'7 and equally as athletic. Also a very good defender.

Of course not but hopefully one or two NBLers are in the team.
