The Knicks already were going to be well-represented on Team USA at the FIBA World Cup later this summer, and now RJ Barrett officially is going, too.
Barrett has been named to Team Canada’s 12-man roster, joining NBA champion Jamal Murray of the Nuggets and All-Star guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander of the Thunder, among others.
Knicks teammates Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart previously were named to the American squad, which will be coached by Steve Kerr.
The 23-year-old Barrett averaged 19.6 points and 5.0 rebounds in 73 games for the Knicks last season, and 19.3 points and 4.5 boards in 11 postseason contests.
Barrett’s father, former St. John’s player Rowan Barrett Sr., is the general manager of the Canadian squad.
The roster also includes Dillon Brooks, Kelly Olynyk, Lu Dort, Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Cory Joseph.
The FIBA World Cup will be held from Aug. 25-Sept. 10 in Indonesia, Japan and the Philippines.
