Check out some of the people and organizations USA Basketball is following with this week’s USA Basketball Social Roundup:
Never look down upon someone unless you're going to help them up.
— Myles Turner (@Original_Turner) October 27, 2014
This message is all the more meaningful here -- at 6-foot-11, it’s not easy for Myles Turner to not look down on most people. Turner, who helped the USA U18 Men’s National Team win gold at FIBA Americas U18 Championship and the USA Men's Junior Select Team win the 2014 Nike Hoop Summit, is getting set for his freshman season at the University of Texas.
Congrats @Arike_O on committing to Notre Dame 🍀 miss you ❤️

From one member of the 2014 USA Basketball Women’s U17 World Championship Team to another. Kristine Anigwe and Arike Ogunbowale were teammates on the team that captured gold in the Czech Republic this summer at the FIBA U17 World Championship. (Anigwe, by the way, has committed to play for California, Berkeley.)
I see my dude @YoungIvee and his mom on TV at the UK blue vs white game.

Stephen Zimmerman, a member of the gold medalist 2014 USA Basketball U18 National Team, with a shout-out to his friend Ivan Rabb, a member of the USA Basketball Men’s U17 World Championship Team that took home gold in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, in August. Rabb was visiting Kentucky, one of his final five college choices.
After helping the USA World Championship Team win gold in Istanbul, Turkey, earlier this month, Angel McCoughtry is back in Turkey but this time playing for Fenerbahce Istanbul in the EuroLeague. From here, she’s got a nice view of the city!
