FIBA: No basketball age limit expected for 2016

Reported by MyNorthwest.com on Saturday, 11 August 2012 (on August 11, 2012)

AP Basketball Writer LONDON (AP) - The head of basketballs governing body doesnt foresee an age limit for the 2016 Olympics. FIBA secretary general Patrick Baumann said Saturday his feeling is that an under-23 policy limit for men probably wont be proposed for the Rio Games. The NBA has said it may favor Olympic basketball using a model like soccer, in which teams are made up of players 23 and younger, with three roster exceptions for older players. If the rule was changed, LeBron James says he wouldnt play for the U.S.
