The Swedish National Team has barred Jonas Jerebko from playing for them, after the star forward signed with Russian club CSKA Moscow. Sweden has condemned Russia invasion of Ukraine.

Jerebko recently signed with CSKA to finish out the 2022 regular season. Russian clubs are currently banned from international competitions, but can compete domestically. Jerebko was added after CSKA, same as many other Russian clubs, lost players following the invasion of Ukraine.

The 10-year NBA veteran Jerebko has been playing overseas for the last three seasons. He played for the Swedish National Team has recently as late-February, when Sweden took on Croatia in a pair of games. Jerebko started both of those games, scoring 16 points in the second matchup.

Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon would like to suit up for Poland's national team in future international competitions. Reports out of Poland are that they will look to make Brogdon a naturalized citizen to make him eligible for Polish National Team.

Brogdon traveled through Poland extensively last summer, and his wife has Polish roots. The belief is that Brogdon would like to play at the national team level, and his prospects for doing so with Team USA are limited.

Poland has featured Baylor Bears forward Jeremy Sochan on their roster in recent events. Sochan became the youngest player to play for the Polish senior team, when he led Poland over Romania in a EuroBasket qualifier. Poland hopes that Brogdon and Sochan can take them to new heights on the national team level.
