New Blazers forward Al-Farouq Aminu has committed to joining the Nigerian National Team after playing the NBA Africa game in Johannesburg, Nigeria’s head coach Will Voigt told HoopsHype.

Nigeria is slated to compete at the Afrobasket next month. The winner of the tournament will qualify for the 2016 Olympics.

The Atlanta-born Aminu, who recently signed a four-year contract with Portland, already played for Nigeria at the 2012 Olympics and the 2013 Afrobasket.
