Lynx coach Cheryl Reeve will serve as a court coach at USA Basketball Women's National Team training camp, which will be held Feb. 9-11 at the University of South Carolina.

Reeve, Seattle Storm coach Dan Hughes and Los Angeles Sparks coach Brian Agler will be court coaches, assisting head coach Dawn Staley with drills and scrimmages during the camp.

Staley is the head coach of the South Carolina women's team, which is currently 13-2 and ranked in the top ten nationally.

Lynx players Seimone Augustus, Sylvia Fowles, Maya Moore and Lindsay Whalen are all in the National Team pool, but it is unclear how many of them will take part in the training camp. Moore is playing in Russia and Fowles is in China.

Reeve has extensive experience working with USA Basketball. She was an assistant coach for the 2014-16 National Team that won gold medals at both the 2014 FIBA World Cup and the 2016 Olympics.
