I believe this could contribute to his development. As well as he’s of Filipino descent, it would be truly special for him to represent the USA in his mother’s homeland.
Pacers All-Star Tyrese Haliburton and Nets rising star Mikal Bridges have committed to Team USA roster for 2023 FIBA World Cup, joining Anthony Edwards, Austin Reaves, Bobby Portis so far, sources tell me and @joevardon.

There’s 0 chance he gets an invite unless enough people decline
probably not the actual team but they invite another group of players to practice with them which I presume he would be invited to
Why would he
I hope so, he just talked about his interest in joining them on Paul George’s podcast and said he wanted to play and win gold for the US, but he also said he did want to play with the Philippino team if he got invited to that team too.
