Napheesa Collier participating in 3x3 National Championships

I didn't know that was possible. Pheesa would be great add--probably, I would imagine, for Gildon. Hebard is very good, and getting better, but Pheesa is, well, Pheesa, and they would be a very tough matchup inside. I'd keep Boley since she's money from long range.

The committee can do whatever they feel gives them the best chance. I look at it as Golden State adding Durant. Doesn’t hurt! Hahaha

This is from the story on the championship game that is posted at the USA BB site:

The four athletes that will comprise the 2018 USA Women’s 3x3 World Cup Team are expected to come from participants at the 2018 USA Basketball 3x3 National Championships. The four-member team will be announced at a later date.

For those who have followed 3x3, this team doesn't look like the mold. Only 1 ball handler who is not known for speed, lack of defense and a shooter who can be face guarded as she cannot move. The team needs versatility and this team has basically 3 forwards who each have a specific strength but are not versatile.
