By , About.com Guide   July 22, 2009

Follow me on:

Some of the top young players in the NBA will assemble in Las Vegas this week for USA Basketball's National Team mini-camp.

The camp schedule includes two days of practices on July 23 and 24, and an intra-squad scrimmage on July 25th at UNLV's Thomas & Mack Center. The players who impress USA Basketball will have a chance to join the national team for the World Championships in 2010 or the 2012 Olympic Games in London.

Participating in the mini-camp are:

  • D.J. Augustin (Bobcats)
  • Jerryd Bayless (Trail Blazers)
  • Ronnie Brewer (Jazz)
  • Kevin Durant (Thunder)
  • Rudy Gay (Grizzlies)
  • Eric Gordon (Clippers)
  • Jeff Green (Thunder)
  • Blake Griffin (Clippers)
  • Devin Harris (Nets)
  • Andre Iguodala (Sixers)
  • Kyle Korver (Jazz)
  • Brook Lopez (Nets)
  • Kevin Love (Timberwolves)
  • O.J. Mayo (Grizzlies)
  • Paul Millsap (Jazz)
  • Greg Oden (Trail Blazers)
  • Anthony Randolph (Warriors)
  • Derrick Rose (Bulls)
  • Josh Smith (Hawks)
  • Russell Westbrook (Thunder)
  • Thaddeus Young (Sixers)
Danny Granger of the Pacers and David Lee of the Knicks will also attend, but will not be on the court. Granger is using the summer to recover from a number of injuries, and Lee, a restricted free agent, won't risk injury while he awaits contract offers.

The mini-camp will be led by coach Jay Triano of the Toronto Raptors.
