Team USA coach Mike Krzyzewski like what he sees in Philadelphia 76ers swingman Andre Iguodala at the USA Basketball training camp. And with the Duke University mentor highly impressed by Iggy's over-all game, the 6-6 former University of Arizona standout was rewarded a slot in the 15-man line-up to the FIBA World Basketball Championships in Turkey next month, the Philly Daily News reported.
"He wants to be on this team, and that's impressed us. He had as good a week as anybody in Las Vegas. He was efficient offensively, took easy shots, was a very good outside shooter. We think he can drive the ball. His athleticism on the defensive end...he's one of the best in the NBA. We see him more at the three (small forward) or on the wing possibly being a shut down defender."
