It was a frustrating Olympics for Jayson Tatum despite winning a gold medal, as the Boston Celtics star had to watch much of the past five games from the bench.

But despite Team USA coach Steve Kerr limiting Tatum's role in the Olympics, he said his decision on whether he will play in the 2028 Games won't be one he makes based on how this year went.

"It was a tough personal experience on the court, but I'm not going to make any decision off emotions," Tatum said, per ESPN"s Brian Windhorst.
