Davis was seen as a possible 12th man as it was -- team officials view the Clippers' Blake Griffin, the Timberwolves' Kevin Love and the Knicks' Tyson Chandler as the primary rebounders -- so Colangelo may not be inclined to expand his roster even if an amendment is allowed. If he does, however, Kings center DeMarcus Cousins is a likely candidate to fill the void left by Davis. Cousins, already a member of the Select team that will train with and compete against the Team USA finalists in Las Vegas, has been vocal about his plan to play his way onto the London squad.

"I'm not going [to Las Vegas] just to practice," Cousins told local media in early June. "I can make that team."

His agent, John Greig, is hopeful that his client will be considered.

"DeMarcus feels like the [Team USA] consideration is high prestige," Greig said. "It's a high-quality organization, but in the interests of USA Basketball, I know that DeMarcus has a lot of passion about his desire to prove himself worthy this go-round.

"I would believe that if unforeseen injuries occurred, that FIBA would be more likely to allow adjustments to the roster and at that point they would look at all options."

Jazz power forward Derrick Favors, another member of the Select team, could also be considered.
Good attitude Big Cuhz

I will bet any amount of Coli Cash that the U.S. team beats Spain by at least 20 no matter who plays.
