The Dominican Republic has put together a roster full of figures with whom they must fight to be among the best four in the Basketball World Cup. Those led by Néstor “Che” García come from a great stage of preparation and will debut this Friday against the Philippines.
Although they have the loss of NBA players Chris Duarte and Al Horford, the squad looks very even and with players with experience in the best basketball in the world. It is worth reviewing three of the members of the squad who have been in the prestigious American league.
The Minnesota Timberwolves center needs no introduction. He is one of the most dominant players in the paint in the NBA and will once again wear the jersey of his mother’s country. “I have a dream that we are at the Olympic Games and that we win a medal at the Olympics,” said the lanky player once he joined the national team’s training sessions. In the last campaign he averaged 20.8 points, with 8.4 rebounds and 4.8 assists. He had not attended a tournament with the national team since the 2013 World Cup, when he was a rookie.
