If the U.S. doesn't win the FIBA World Cup it's all Mesut Özil's fault.
The U.S. is getting ready to take on the rest of the planet at the FIBA World Cup, and who better to get pointers from than FIFA World Cup champion Mesut Özil? The German stopped by U.S. practice on Thursday and got to meet the team and presumably tell the players how to become the very best in the world so they can look down upon every other nation on Earth.

Özil doesn't look at all awkward holding that basketball. But he persevered and gave some words of wisdom to Derrick Rose.

Germany didn't qualify for the FIBA World Cup so Özil is basically a free agent and isn't risking the wrath of Dirk Nowitzki by helping out the Americans. Not that Damian Lillard was interested in what he had to say.
