The first we know of: I’m told that some prominent NBA players will be sporting U.S. men’s national team shirts this weekend on their catwalk entrances to various arenas to help hype up the Americans’ forthcoming World Cup campaign before the lads’ first Group B game Monday against Wales. Chicago’s Alex Caruso, Portland’s Josh Hart, Milwaukee’s Jrue Holiday, New Orleans’ Larry Nance Jr., San Antonio’s Josh Richardson and Orlando’s Jalen Suggs are among the players expected to participate. And word is there should be several more to emerge after arranging to receive #USMNT gear from U.S. Soccer.
