Adidas has released its list of 39 college counselors for its annual adidas Global Nations event in California. This year’s list of college players is a pretty good one, as it features some incoming McDonald’s All-Americans like Ben Simmons and Antonio Blakeney (LSU), Caleb Swanigan (Purdue) and Thomas Bryant (Indiana) as well as college stars like Buddy Hield (Oklahoma), Georges Niang (Iowa State) and Kyle Wiltjer (Gonzaga) -- to name a short few.
The event is important because it gives the college counselors chances to play games against each other in front of NBA scouts. NBA guys will often jump in and get in the games as well as Kyle Lowry, Aaron Afflalo and Tracy McGrady jumped into games with the college guys last summer.
