I do not perceive what the massive deal is that Jayson Tatum will not be within the rotation for the primary recreation of USAMB. They beat probably the most gifted nations with 26(!!). Steve Kerr stated that JT can be an element towards different opponents. He ought to be. Not everybody can play. – 10:33 am
I swear I feel the message of this Jayson Tatum factor is that Staff USA ought to solely carry six or seven All-Stars to future Olympics. Assure taking part in time to a small group, then get a broader group of specialists who perceive they may not play. This can be a silly information cycle. – 21:47 hours
(And to be clear, I do not actually have an opinion on them not taking part in Tatum. I feel there are positively matchups the place he’ll be essential. I can think about a world the place it made extra sense to go the opposite means towards Serbia. I assume I am simply being affected person and determining what the plan is for him) – 6:19 PM

Caitlin Clark, Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum. This isn’t Little League. I’ve watched Phil Jackson up shut and written about him. Tons to consider. However Phil has established a staff hierarchy. Steve Kerr and others have made their daring selections. Within the midst of politics, you continue to have to teach. – 09:27 am

Jayson Tatum will play on Wednesday, coach Steve Kerr says, shortly including that he would not say who can be reduce from the 10-man rotation. – 06:01 am
It is no huge shock to me that Kerr would not have been so enamored with Tatum’s play on this setting. In all probability Tatum’s largest weak spot is ball retention, and Kerr typically hates that, most likely much more so on a staff with this a lot expertise. – 5:59 PM
