Bruce Branch III is heading to the international stage.
The incoming BYU freshman was officially named to the 2026 USA Basketball Men’s U18 National Team on Wednesday after earning a spot through training camp in Colorado Springs.
Branch will now represent Team USA at the FIBA U18 Men’s AmeriCup in León, Mexico in June.
Widely regarded as one of the top prospects in the country, the 6-foot-7 wing continues to add to an impressive offseason that has included appearances at the Nike Hoop Summit and USA Basketball training camp.

Branch is set to arrive in Provo as one of the highest-rated signees in recent BYU basketball history and his selection to Team USA adds another milestone before his college career even begins.
