I looked on the USA national teams' website and it still had last years roster. My guess is they still haven't announced their official roster yet. Also couldn't find any articles on the 2014 U19 team.

I imagine the practices against top flight competition are the main benefits on the court for these kids. The rest is just letting college players be kids and get to see some cool places and cultures

Agree with this. It also helps to be exposed to other good coaches. Usually, these teams have good coaches.

It also can be helpful to recruiting when the OU coaches point out that their players participate in things like this. It certainly cannot hurt.

Its a win-win opportunity for the player (Booker) and his team (OU).
