Raptors center Jonas Valanciunas will play internationally again, according to TalkBasket.net.

Valanciunas, the Lithuanian native, has spent previous years playing for his national team and was named a member of Lithuania's 25-man, preliminary roster this week. Other recognizable names on the list include Domantas Sabonis (Arvydas' son), Linas Kleiza and Donatas Motiejunas, though Motiejunas may skip summer ball to recover from back surgery.

Valanciunas averaged 12.0 points and 8.7 rebounds this past season in Toronto, his third year in the NBA. He averaged 14.4 points and 8.4 rebounds in 24.8 minutes a night during the 2014 FIBA World Cup.
