Indeed, coach Pablo Prigioni decided to call some well-known names from the NBA and/or international universe, such as Facundo Campazzo, Gabriel Deck, Carlos Delfino, Nicola Brussino, Patricio Garino or Luca Vildozaall of which passed more or less briefly through the United States.
The rest of this 16-man squad includes Lee Aaliya, Gonzalo Bressan, Francisco Caffaro, Tomas Chapero, Gonzalo Corbalan, Juan Fernandez, Maximo Fjellerup, Juan Ignacio Marcos, Lucio Redivo and Santiago Trouet.
