PORTLAND, Ore. (June 4, 2013) – adidas today announced the official player roster for adidas EUROCAMP, the most prestigious international pre-NBA Draft camp featuring top basketball players who will showcase their skills during the three-day event in Treviso, Italy June 8-10, 2013.

In its 11th year, adidas EUROCAMP provides a global stage for the top international prospects to practice, compete and interview with NBA teams and other professional leagues leading up to the NBA Draft.  Players will also attend clinics and learn from current and former NBA coaches and players including Flip Saunders (Minnesota Timberwolves), Kenneth Faried (Denver Nuggets), Serge Ibaka (Oklahoma City Thunder) and Omri Casspi (Cleveland Cavaliers).

 More than 45 early entries and NBA Draft-eligible participants, including projected 2013 NBA Draft picks Rudy Gobert (France), Lucas Nogueira (Brazil) and Nemanja Nedovic (Serbia) will participate in adidas EUROCAMP 2013. Former adidas EUROCAMP participants include 62 NBA Draft picks and including Danilo Gallinari, Nicolas Batum, Andrea Bargnani and Omer Asik.  23 former participants currently hold NBA contracts with 57 playing in Euroleague Basketball.  In 2012, seven adidas EUROCAMP players were selected during the NBA Draft including first-round pick Evan Fournier of France – the No. 20 overall selection by the Denver Nuggets.  
 

Houston Rockets director of scouting and adidas EUROCAMP camp director Arturas Karnisovas, and Minnesota Timberwolves assistant coach and adidas EUROCAMP coaching director, Bill Bayno, return for their second year.  In addition, several NBA assistant coaches will join the adidas EUROCAMP coaching staff including Kenny Atkinson (Atlanta Hawks), Kelvin Sampson and Chris Finch (Houston Rockets), Armond Hill (Boston Celtics), Kaleb Canales (Dallas Mavericks), Melvin Hunt (Denver Nuggets), Eric Hughes (Toronto Raptors), Jim Boylen (Indiana Pacers) and Maz Trakh (Oklahoma City Thunder).  Also coaching will be Ilias Zouros (former Greece national team head coach) and Sarunas Marciulonis (Olympic gold medalist and former NBA player).

Teams also participating this year include the under-18 adidas USA Select, the under-20 men’s basketball national team from France and the under-19 men’s national team from Serbia.  For the first time, adidas EUROCAMP Next Generation, an elite program to enhance both on-court and life skills, joins the event and features the top under-16 European players.  Dimitris Itoudis (former Panathinaikos BC assistant coach and European professional basketball player) and Marcelo Nicola (former European professional basketball player) will attend as coaches for adidas EUROCAMP Next Generation.
