RJ Barrett made his debut for the Canadian National team Sunday with an outstanding performance against China Sunday night, scoring 21 points.

We’ve been telling you for a while that we regard Canada as THE rising power in international basketball. Look who they have now: Barrett, Andrew Wiggins, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Jamal Murray, Dillon Brooks, Tristan Thompson and Corey Joseph for starters.

Barrett could be the best yet.
