Luc and the Olympics

| | Comments (0) |

UCLA power forward Luc Richard Mbah a Moute said he was to play for Cameroon in the 12-team Olympic qualifier July 14-20 in Athens, Greece, but he will not make up his mind until he knows whether or not he is staying in the NBA draft.
Mbah a Moute is working out at the Home Depot Center, and said he was unsure how NBA teams would react to his playing in the qualifier if he was drafted.
However, Mbah a Moute said he would play for Cameroon if he decides to return to UCLA.
Cameroon is in a group with Puerto Rico and Croatia, and the top two teams from each group advance to knockout play. The countries that play in the title game qualify for the Olympics later this summer in China, as does the winner of a game between the losers of the semifinals.
