Triano To Lead USA Basketball Mini-Camp

Raptors new head coach Jay Triano will start his summer with a project. Today it was announced that he will lead a group of young NBA stars for a four-day USA Basketball camp in Las Vegas in July. The camp will include three days of workouts and intrasquad scrimmage. Young stars such as Derrick Rose and Kevin Durant will be attending Triano's workout for possible slots on future teams. This is part of USA Basketball National Director Jerry Colanegelo's plan calling for a "two year commitment" from American NBA stars, to play both in Turkey in 2010, and in London in 2011. It appears the Colangelos are quite fond of Jay.
