Jayson Tatum was the lone All-NBA 1st teamer on Team USA for these Olympic games (with the other 4 being international players), so one would think he would have gotten more playing time than anyone. Steve Kerr wasn't one of those people. Kerr more or less had Tatum as his 11th man and with Team USA getting through the Olympics very healthy, Tatum was the odd man out for reasons only it's head coach could explain.
For his part, Tatum still collected a gold medal, along with teammates Jrue Holiday and Derrick White. Tatum agrees that this year's Olympic games were a humbling experience.
