Mikal Bridges and Cam Johnson are cutting their vacations short to play for Team USA in this month’s FIBA World Cup.

But a victory would top vacation.

It’s a small price to pay for the two rising young Nets to get to represent their country — and have a chance at what could be a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

“Yeah, [it’s going to be] so much fun,” Bridges told The Post. “It’s honestly just, like, a blessing to get the invite and be able to go. Obviously, it cuts the offseason short, but, I mean, it’s Team USA. That’s definitely something I’d rather cut it short for. So definitely excited, excited [for] the teammates and coaches that are going to be out there, and just ready to win.”
