Cubillan and Venezuelan National Team

[jmayer1]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Cubillan cut from the Venezuela national team?  This snippet comes from ESPN's preview of the Tournament of the Americas.

Venezuela - They were expecting to be the home team for this tournament before it was moved to Las Vegas following Team USA's bronze-medal finish in Japan last summer.

Keep an eye on 3-point shooter David Cubillan, who plays college ball in the U.S. for Marquette. Also, don't expect the Venezuelans to look particularly sharp in their opener against the U.S. on Wednesday night, as the team is due to arrive in Las Vegas just 27 hours prior to tip-off.

Venezuela needed more than Cubillian to stop Kobe and Carmelo

It could be a case where Venezuela changed their team at the last moment and no one expected it would include cutting Coobey. Add to that, the author is an MU guy and maybe he wanted to give a plug to the school.
