Nigeria's 16-player training camp roster for the upcoming Olympics featured eight active players from the NBA.

The players include: Precious Achiuwa, Chimezie Metu, Jordan Nwora, Jahlil Okafor, Josh Okogie, KZ Okpala, Miye Oni and Gabe Vincent.

Michael Gbinije and Ekpe Udoh also have previous NBA experience.

"We've had a very competitive camp and the players have brought a ton of energy to our practice sessions so far," said Nigeria coach Mike Brown. 

Nigeria are currently set to play three exhibition games in Las Vegas. 

The team will eventually reduce the roster down to 12 players.
