ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski cites Adebayo’s agent, Alex Saratsis with the decision.
Adebayo, 23, will have a chance to work on his game against the best competition in the world.
Adebayo averaged 18.7 points per game and 9 rebounds this season.
However, Adebayo struggled as the Heat were swept out of the first round by the Milwaukee Bucks.
This is not Adebayo’s first experience with USA basketball.
He had previously tried out, but was cut by Spurs coach Gregg Popovich.
