    Brady Heslip will reportedly sign a camp contract with the Wolves. Tyler Ennis just signed with the Suns. They join the likes of freshly signed NBA newcomers Sim Bhullar, Nik Stauskas, Dwight Powell, and Andrew Wiggins.

    A few fringe players could eventually make their way onto an NBA roster as well including Melvin Ejim, Khem Birch, and Jordan Bachynski. Canada has more prospects coming through the NCAA D1 system including Trey Lyles, Kevin Pangos, Duane Notice, and Justin Jackson.

    Montaque Gill-Caesar - Huntington St. Joseph Prep (W.Va.) Top HS prospect from Canada right now. Very slick wing player. I think he's going to Missouri.

    If some of these guys develop they could be a serious international player in the near future
