Team USA basketball is practicing at the West Point Military Academy on Monday.

The practice started at 2 p.m. EDT and will take place for two hours.

The practice is being broadcast on ESPN 2.

Live streaming is available via Watch ESPN.

The players started the day meeting cadets and watching them demonstrate some of their training, touring the facility, and dining in the mess hall.

The day includes practice and a scrimmage.

Derrick Rose and DeMarcus Cousins appear to be the only U.S. players who aren’t participating, because of minor injuries.

Team USA is playing in the FIBA World Cup, which starts on August 30.

The team is set to pick up preparations in New York City on August 17 and play two exhibition games, one against the Dominican Republic on August 20 and the second against Puerto Rico on August 22.
