Team USA won't use training camp to set roster

Team USA director Jerry Colangelo expects to have a 12-man roster for the 2016 Rio Olympics in place soon after next year's NBA draft, bypassing a training camp to cut players next summer.

"What we want to do is protect our players," Colangelo said during ESPN2's telecast of Team USA's scrimmage, a 134-128 victory for the DeMarcus Cousins-led White team. "We don't want to cut players. We don't want to embarrass them if they came to a camp with 18 or 20 and you have to get down to 12."
