Jamison Makes U.S. National Team

When the U.S. national team gathered in Las Vegas on July 19 for its first workout, Washington Wizards forward Antawn Jamison figured to be a long shot to make the roster for the FIBA World Championship team. However, a handful of injuries -- including a groin strain suffered by Wizards guard Gilbert Arenas -- combined with Jamison's showing in pre-tournament games helped him make the team yesterday when Coach Mike Krzyzewski and national team director Jerry Colangelo announced the 12-man squad.
