The first two cuts from the Spanish national team are a fact. Coach Sergio Scariolo decided that guard/forward Dani Diez and point guard Quino Colom are no longer needed.
Both players knew from the start that they were longshots to make the final team. At this point two more players have to be cut, as 14 are left in the preselection of Spain. Meanwhile Alex Abrines (photo) is expected to miss the first preparation game of the team due to plantar fascitis.
