A new edition of the Nike Global Challenge will be held in Liberty High School (Hillsboro, Oregon) from August 5th to 7th. Eight teams will compete in a 12-game tournament. Who will participate in the event? USA East, USA West, USA Midwest, Brazil, Canada, Chinese Taipei, Puerto Rico and Germany. 

 

Players born 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994 and 1995 will meet there, with some interesting European prospects in German squad. 6'0'' PG Dennis Schröder ('93) -at the pic-, who made a great U18 EC (13.5 points and 4.9 assists), will be one to follow, without forgetting Malik Müller ('94) or Kenneth Ogbe ('94). Team coached by Kay Blümel will face USA Midwest in the first round of the bracket.
