Within a few days is about to start the world basketball held in China and for those of us who are passionate about this beautiful discipline that throughout our lives has brought us many emotions and great moments, we can enjoy one of the best events of the sport of the highest competitive level that takes place every 4 years.
I am pleased to inform you that I will be covering this event and I will publish daily, so that you are aware of the performance of 2 selections that I know very well as is the case of Venezuela which is my country of origin and the selection of the United States, team about which I also have a lot of knowledge by my work writing about the NBA. But I will also analyze some other interesting encounters or teams that can give surprises in this great world event.
I remember that when I started on this platform I was about to start a big event more than a year ago and it was at the World Cup in Russia that we all enjoyed, I hope that several of the other good Scorum writers will also come together and give their opinions or analyze about their selections or teams that they may have as favorites to capture their performances at the World Cup.
These events and specifically this basketball world cup arouses a special emotion because the fact of being national teams giving everything for their country in the specialty of basketball, makes it extremely interesting, and even more so with the participation of the national team of my country.
In total there will be 32 national selections that will represent with their teams each of their countries, Venezuela and the United States already have their rosters defined.
