Jamal Murray will not play for Team Canada in the 2027 FIBA World Cup or the 2028 Olympics because he was unable to give the 3-year commitment that Canada Basketball requires from its players.
The 3-year commitment is mandatory for Canadian basketball players to be eligible for bigger tournaments like the Olympics.
NBA players who committed are Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, Dillon Brooks, RJ Barrett, Bennedict Mathurin, and more.
Murray joins Andrew Wiggins and Shaedon Sharpe as guys who are out moving forward 👀
