It’s not an enormous shock to me that Kerr wouldn’t have been as enamored of Tatum’s recreation on this setting. Most likely Tatum’s largest weak point is holding the ball and Kerr hates that usually, and doubtless much more so on a crew with this a lot expertise. – 5:59 PM

Extra on this storyline
Tatum didn’t participate in mixed-zone interviews after the sport. He merely mentioned he’s in good well being. Celtics guard Derrick White, who performed quarter-hour, 40 seconds in Sunday’s win, mentioned he spoke to Tatum after the sport. “He’s good,” White mentioned. “He’s in good spirits. He’s clearly a hell of a participant and we’ve bought quite a lot of nice guys on the crew, so he’ll be all proper.” -via Boston Globe / July 28, 2024
Afterward, US coach Steve Kerr mentioned Jayson Tatum’s absence was largely associated to the return of ahead Kevin Durant, who poured in 23 factors on 8 of 9 taking pictures in simply 17 minutes after sitting out for almost a month attributable to a calf pressure. “It’s actually arduous in a 40-minute recreation to play greater than 10 guys,” Kerr mentioned. “With Kevin coming again, I simply went to the mixtures that I felt made probably the most sense. It appears loopy. I believed I used to be loopy once I checked out every little thing and decided these are the lineups I needed to get to. Jayson is first-team All-NBA three years in a row. He’s the most effective gamers on this planet. I went with the mixtures I felt would make sense, and I talked to him, and he was extremely skilled.” -via Boston Globe / July 28, 2024
Kerr pressured that he doesn’t anticipate that these rotations will stay unchanged all through the Olympics. “[Tatum will] make his mark,” he mentioned. “Our guys know the important thing to this complete factor is to place all of the NBA stuff within the rearview mirror and simply win six video games. Jayson is the last word professional and champion and he dealt with it nicely, and he’s going to be prepared for the following recreation.” -via Boston Globe / July 28, 2024
