Team USA may have failed to win a medal in the 2023 FIBA World Cup, but it helped some NBA players bond for life.
The likes of Josh Hart, Mikal Bridges, and Jalen Brunson formed close friendships while donning the jersey of Team USA.
Hart is notorious for pulling hilarious pranks on his teammates, be it for Team USA or the New York Knicks.
Josh Hart gave a glimpse of it by calling out his Team USA teammates Mikal Bridges and Cam Johnson for attending a college game between Penn State vs. Iowa via his Twitter official handle.

Bridges and Johnson entered the stadium as they were spotted by the camera.
Hart evidently missed the opportunity and hilariously reacted on Twitter.
Hart was obviously disappointed with no invite to the game and wanted to be a part of it.
