Three months before the Olympics, the U.S. men's basketball team has already been losing players. Not just any players, but some of the best in the sport.
Davis and Paul are NBA All-Stars, perhaps two of the top 10 players in the league, and could have been the starting center and point guard when the Americans took the floor for their Olympic opener. Paul seems like a particularly big loss, given how many key plays he made four years ago against Lithuania and Spain in the only close games the U.S. faced.
This has to be cause for concern, right?
