WCS named to All-Rookie Second Team

Even though he has no chance of making the team, this is great for him. Just to be around all the best players the league has to offer and up coming players too.
I don't think that's what they're there for, anyway. IIRC from when Evans was there, the "select team" is USMNT's equivalent of a practice squad.

That's exactly what they are, but it is a stepping stone to the Olympic team of the future if you can make a big enough impression. Willie is the type of player that brings a speciality that's coveted by the USA team. Just needs to polish up a few things. Then maybe in four years?

He's there to be so impressive, along with Boogie and Rudy, that Durant has no choice but to sign with the Kings ;)
