Andrea Bargnani will compete for Italy in Eurobasket this September in Slovenia.

"I am always happy to play for the Italian National Team," said Bargnani. "Last summer I could not play because of my calf injury. Now, due to my elbow problems I miss playing games but I can't wait to start."

Bargnani was limited to just 35 games last season.

"I got injured for the second consecutive year: last year a calf problem, this season an elbow injury," said Bargnani. "Two probems which forced me to miss a couple of months. I have just started practice again."

The Raptors attempted to trade Bargnani last season, but he remains on the roster and will have a new general manager.

"Today I am a Raptor. Tomorrow we'll see. I am very happy for my years in Toronto. I love the city and in my first three seasons in the NBA we made the postseason. Personally, I think I have always performed well. I don't have any regret."

Mike Krzyzewski has decided to remain as head coach of USA Basketball through the 2016 Olympics in Rio, according to a source.

A formal announcement is expected by the end of the week.

Krzyzewski has a 62-1 record with USA Basketball.

Jerry Colangelo has stayed confident since the end of the 2012 Olympics that he could persuade Krzyzewski to return. 

Mike Krzyzewski is now giving serious consideration to remaining as head coach of USA Basketball through the 2016 Olympics in Rio.

"There's a chance," Krzyzewski said. "That's correct."

Krzyzewski had said for eight months that he's not returning to his position with USA Basketball, but a final decision has yet to be reached.

Jerry Colangelo said Saturday he and Krzyzewski have been discussing his return "in installments."

"I think it's very close to being resolved," Colangelo said. "That's all I can say for sure."

Krzyzewski has a 62-1 since 2005, a run that includes gold medal Olympic victories in Beijing in 2008 and London in 2012. 

Nikola Mirotic would like to one day play for the Spanish senior national team.

A native of Montenegro, Mirotic moved to Spain as a teenager and played for the country’s U20 team at the 2011 European Championship.

"I had a great time playing with the U20," Mirotic said. "I have very fond memories. I am very happy. In Spain, I have felt like at home. We will see what the future holds."

Mirotic hopes to be selected to play for Spain's senior team at the 2014 FIBA World Cup.

"One has to remember that I am a Spanish national and I want to play with them," Mirotic said. "Right now, I belong to them.”
