Oklahoma City Thunder stars Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook have been named to the 34-man roster for the Aug. 11-13 USA Basketball Men's National Team minicamp in Las Vegas.
Durant is still recovering from the foot surgery he underwent in March, and will not participate in any on-court drills, according to ESPN's Royce Young:
Though it's too early predict what the 2016 men's Olympic roster will look like, Durant and Westbrook -- both members of the 2012 U.S. men's Olympic basketball team that won gold over Spain -- are essentially locks if they ultimately choose to participate.
