Coming off a last place finish is usually nothing to be rave about, but incoming recruit Jahii Carson has Sun Devils fans excited about the upcoming basketball season.
Carson, who has been billed as the savior of Sun Devils basketball, spent the weekend trying out for USA Basketball’s U19 team.
The Arizona Republic reported that Carson, who averaged 32 points and three assists per game as a senior in high school, survived the first cut on Sunday and is the youngest player still competing for a roster spot.
The team will depart for Latvia on Friday and the final cut is expected to take place shortly before.
The World Championships will take place June 30 to July 10.
