This morning, USA Basketball announced its final roster for the team that will represent the US in the Pan American games later this month.

The squad, headed by Villanova coach Jay Wright (who did not make the final roster selections himself), includes a couple of guys with local connections. Villanova guard Scottie Reynolds and UNC guard Wayne Ellington, formerly of Episcopal Academy in Merion, Pa, made the final 14. St. Joe's forward Ahmad Nivins was on the trials roster, but didn't make the last cuts.
