From Argentina to NCAA D1. Fidel Cifuentes Rotta (6-9 C '07) left Boca Juniors to join @NiagaraMBB.

🔎Smart big with a 7-foot wingspan, strong frame and a terrific improvement lately. Averaged 11.7p and 4.1r in the FIBA U19 WC last year.

#FIBAU19 | Can't emphasize enough how big of a leap Fidel Cifuentes (204 C '07) has made in terms of positioning and finishing in just one year.

[Prospects Argentina @ProspectsARG]

With no #FIBAU17 WC this year for Argentina, the U18 AmeriCup becomes the most important tournament of the youth cycle.

Argentina shares Group A w/ USA, Brazil and host Mexico. The first three advance.

No Maxi Adams & Simon Gradin is a huge blow. No Mathias & Santos for Brazil.

[Prospects Argentina @ProspectsARG]

We're back on track!

Roster set for the #U18AmeriCup next week. Ten players return from the U17 South American including standouts Caumo & Pettovello.

Top prospect Simón Gradín, out again with a leg injury. Lautaro Basualdo (2010) gets the call despite being two year younger.

#SouthAmericanoU17 | Santiago Pettinaroli (200 F '08) was instrumental in the victory over Colombia. Had a 13-point third quarter w/ 3 threes.
