A USA Junior National Team Committee will then select 12 players to compete in the FIBA U19 Men’s World Cup June 28-July 6 in Switzerland.
Parham averaged 5.1 points and 2.2 rebounds over 34 games as a freshman for MU. The 6-foot-8 forward was the team’s youngest player. He will turn 19 on July 31.
He is one of seven players who competed in college basketball last season to be invited to the USA Basketball training camp.
The other invitations belong to some of the country’s best young hoops prospects, including A.J. Dybantsa, the No. 1 recruit in the 2025 class who will play at BYU next season, and Tyran Stokes, the top-ranked player in the 2026 class.
