Another domino falling. This time it’s Rondae Hollis-Jefferson who dons the Jordan shirt ahead of the 2023 World Cup, which kicks off on Friday. The American player was naturalized before the competition. Objective, get out of the first group stage?
What connection does Rondae Hollis-Jefferson have with Jordan? Benefit of the doubt because it has not been made public. In the meantime, the player is training with the national team and is part of the trip of « Falcons » to East Asia. With 305 NBA games on the clock, the former Nets, Blazers and Raptors will be a luxury asset for Jordan in this 2023 World Cup. interior of which the GreeceTHE UNITED STATES and the New Zealand keep him company. Utopian? Possibly. The FIBA Ranking speaks for itself: Team USA is in the lead, Greece squats in 9th place, New Zealand is not unworthy in 26th position, and Jordan is more timid, with the 33rd seat in the world ranking.
We don’t love the image of the saving American outside his land, but for once, Rondae Holis-Jefferson dons the superhero costume. If Jordan’s primary objective is to get out of the first group stage, the second is actually the first. You do not understand anything ? Basically, focus on the competition and the results of the moment. Difficult to mobilize its players for a cause in which they may not participate. Still don’t understand? Through this World Cup, Jordan hoping to clinch ticket to Paris 2024 Olympics. As explained in this little tutorial, a qualification will be offered to the best Asian country in the competition. That is to say, the one who finishes the best ranked at the World Cup. In 2019, it was Iran, ranked 23rd, which obtained this wild card for the Tokyo Olympics. Jordan had finished 28th: bad luck. This year, the second group stage will be as important as the first for Rondae Hollis-Jefferson and his friends. His reinforcement is entirely justified.
