Canada's 2024 Olympic campaign kicks off tomorrow vs the USA! For @raptorsrepublic, I took a deep dive back to the 2023 WC, analyzing the most ingenious adjustments HC Jordi Fernández made last summer. X's and O's analysis is back!

Riley times the same hand pound dribble so well right before the spin move Becoming a signature move of sorts on his drives
Kitchener’s Will Riley has put together some impressive games for Illinois recently. Near triple-double of 27 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists on 11-17 shooting tonight for the Canadian prospect.

Quote from Jordi after Can Ball officially announced he is stepping down from HC of the SMNT. Not much new info here, seems like an amicable split
On a more serious note, think this isn't a surprise. Writing was on the wall to me once he got the Nets HC job last summer.

Jordi obviously deserves to be on the shortlist, did a fantastic job with Canada this summer. My worry is if NBA head coaching duties overtake SMNT duties. We saw it happen last year with Nick Nurse when he joined Philly, had to drop out 1 month before the WC. (/1)

Oh?

Gray just scored 50 PTS in a 5OT win. Up to 21 PPG on (49/36/81) shooting splits along with 6.0 AST. Would think this is his final year playing in a lower tier domestic league
This feels like a lateral move at best. Really thought Gray was going to get 1 step closer to a continental league this year. I will admit I'm not the most familiar with the comp of Polish vs Romanian league though

Pretty cool to see such a young prospect like Riley be aware of team role and embrace it, even if it's uncharted territory. Had his fair share of struggles so far this year. Huge game today with his second highest scoring output (24) off the bench.
"I feel like I'm just the spark off the bench" - Will Riley on adjusting to a new role since his arrival in college. He scored a team-high 24 against Ohio State, his most points in a game since dropping 31 on EIU in the season opener #Illini

@Truenor23860723 @WitterSR @HairCanada1 But my top 6 probably looks like: Sadler, Riley, Oliogu, Pitt, Ahrens, Akuentok, Osaruyi is so young but would still give him rotation mins

The fact he went from a low 30% 3PT shooter in Europe to a 37.0%+ 3PT shooter on higher volume in 2 seasons in the G League is one of the more impressive developments in recent time for Can Ball. Strong Winter Core impact the last 2 years, really nice to see him rewarded
From Santa Cruz to the Dubs! The Warriors have signed Jackson Rowe to a two-way contract 🤝
