COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - USA Basketball today announced the 35 athletes expected to participate in the 2023 USA U19 Men's National Team Training Camp at the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado and Arizona rising sophomore Kylan Boswell is on the list.
Camp begins June 11 with the 12-member team to be announced before departing for the 2023 FIBA U19 Men's World Cup Championship, scheduled for June 24-July 2 in Debrecen, Hungary.
Athletes attending training camp were selected by the USA Basketball Men's Junior National Team Committee. Athletes eligible for this team must be U.S. citizens, born on or after January 1, 2004.
Nearly half of the athletes have prior USA Basketball experience, including Boswell, who won a gold medal while playing for Team USA at the 2021 FIBA U16 Americas Championship. He averaged 9.2 points, 3.7 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.2 steals over the seven games of the event.
Boswell recently completed his freshman season at Arizona, where he was a Pac-12 All-Freshman Team honorable mention recipient after appearing in all 35 games and shooting 39% from the 3-point line. He continued to get stronger as the season wore on, highlighted by the fact that he connected on 11 of 17 from long distance over the final six games of the season and was named Pac-12 Freshman of the Week after a pair of 14-point efforts at USC and UCLA to close the regular season.
The team will be led by head coach Tad Boyle and assistant coaches Mike Boynton (Oklahoma State) and Leon Rice (Boise State). Supporting as court coaches during trials will be Jonas Hayes (Georgia State University), Kevin Kruger (UNLV), TJ Otzelberger (Iowa State University) and Micah Shrewsberry (Notre Dame).
The United States will square off with Lebanon, Madagascar and Slovenia in pool play.
The U.S. will face off against Lebanon and Madagascar for the first time at a 2023 FIBA Men's U19 World Cup. The U.S. own a 2-0 record against Slovenia at the U19 World Cup.
The United States has won the competition eight times, including three of the last four competitions—in 2015, 2019 and 2021.
