Grant Hill on Jaylen Brown not replacing Kawhi Leonard:
“For a good portion of my career, I wore FILA. That was supposed to be a joke. We’re proud of our partners at USA Basketball. This is about putting together a team… Whatever theories might be out there, they’re just that.” pic.twitter.com/DJr3ZrWiOc – 3:46 AM

Steph Curry on Kawhi Leonard withdrawing from Team USA before the Olympics: “I know he wanted to play… Hopefully, for the long term, he’s in a good place because the game needs him. When he’s not out there, you miss an all-time great player. We hope he’s ready for this season.” pic.twitter.com/0M3S5UfLtD – 1:16 AM

Steph Curry wishes the very best for Kawhi Leonard and his health: “The game needs him. When he’s not out there you’re missing an all-time great player.” – 1:05 AM
Gerald Bourguet @GeraldBourguet
Team USA wins their exhibition game against Canada, 86-72. Anthony Edwards had 13, Steph Curry added 12 and Devin Booker chipped in 9-2-2 – 12:31 AM
Nate Duncan @NateDuncanNBA
USA/Canada thoughts: USA took only 22 3s, 12 FTA. Halfcourt offense was extremely clunky, but Canada has best perimeter defense they’ll face. USA also misses KD a lot in halfcourt offense. If USA is going to play this Bam/AD unit, I like Curry with them more than Hali. – 12:31 AM

Gerald Bourguet @GeraldBourguet
Team USA up 69-54 thru 3 quarters after Ant’s buzzer-beating 3. Steph Curry is leading the way with 12 points, while Devin Booker has 9 points, 2 rebounds and 1 assist on 4-5 FG in his 15 minutes – 12:07 AM
John Hollinger @johnhollinger
Curry and-1 directly into a cover-shoot pose. Left SGA in the dust. USA starting group has been a bit clunky as a whole but Steph has been consistently dangerous. – 11:46 PM
Tim Bontemps @TimBontemps
New ESPN story: Grant Hill said it was Team USA’s decision to send Kawhi Leonard home.
“We just felt it was in our best interest, but also in the Clippers’ and Kahwi’s best interest, to move into a different direction.” espn.com/olympics/baske… – 11:09 PM
Gerald Bourguet @GeraldBourguet
Canada up 11-1 to start until Steph Curry hits a 3 for Team USA’s first FG of the game…around the 5-minute mark – 10:43 PM
Jonathan Feigen @Jonathan_Feigen
USA starting Embiid, Curry, James, Booker and Holiday with Durant out. Plug in KD for Holiday or Booker and this could be the lineup in France. – 10:35 PM
Jeff Zillgitt @JeffZillgitt
USA Basketball men’s Olympic team starting lineup vs. Canada:
LeBron James
Steph Curry
Devin Booker
Joel Embiid
Jrue Holiday

Tim Bontemps @TimBontemps
The starters for Team USA:
Stephen Curry, Devin Booker, Jrue Holiday, LeBron James and Joel Embiid. – 10:34 PM
Kurt Helin @basketballtalk
In case you missed it, your starting five for Team USA:
Stephen Curry
Devin Booker
Jrue Holiday
LeBron James
Joel Embiid
(Once Durant gets healthy he subs out one of Booker and Holiday, and other things could shift as well. Tatum and Edwards could get looks.) – 10:32 PM

🚨NEW PODCAST🚨
It’s understandable that Jaylen Brown feels snubbed by Team USA, as his tweets today seemed to suggest. It was a bad look to share that belief after one of his Celtics teammates was selected to replace Kawhi Leonard.
Full episode here: patreon.com/posts/10790248… – 10:24 PM
Duane Rankin @DuaneRankin
No Kevin Durant (calf) tonight.
Kawhi Leonard withdraws.
Derrick White replaces Leonard.
Who would you start tonight vs. Canada in Las Vegas.
My 5: Stephen Curry, Devin Booker, Jayson Tatum, LeBron James and Joel Embiid.
Thoughts? #TeamUSA#Paris2024 – 9:51 PM

Ohm Youngmisuk @NotoriousOHM
Grant Hill said USA Basketball gathered together to see what team needed after seeing it on floor after a few days and considering where Kawhi Leonard was health-wise. He said he’s always been a fan of Derrick White. “It’s bittersweet obviously but we are thrilled to add Derrick” – 9:23 PM
Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Ran into Kawhi
He’s in good spirits. Found out yesterday that his USA run would be cut short. But still planning on getting some work in before he leaves to get ready for fall
(also, he says he’s never cutting his hair lol) – 9:23 PM
Ohm Youngmisuk @NotoriousOHM
Asked Grant Hill if Kawhi Leonard’s inflammation flared up or if he had a setback, he didn’t want to get into specifics other than saying USA BB “just felt we had to pivot” and everyone gave it a try. Hill indicates USA felt decision had to be made and helps Kawhi and Clippers. – 9:21 PM
Vincent Goodwill @VinceGoodwill
Grant Hill on sending Kawhi Leonard home, a decision made by the Clippers and USAB: “I think he wanted to be here, like all the guys want to be here…I applaud him for coming here and willing to sacrifice. Ultimately, it didn’t work out.” – 9:19 PM
Ohm Youngmisuk @NotoriousOHM
Grant Hill says the decision on Kawhi Leonard to pull out was made yesterday in conjunction with the Clippers. – 9:16 PM
Ryan Ward @RyanWardLA
Steph Curry put some extra work in after Team USA practice and started taking some halfcourt shots at the end… Took him a couple tries and then he knocked one down. pic.twitter.com/0n90znpYqp – 8:20 PM
Dalton Johnson @DaltonJ_Johnson
Full-court press guarding Steph Curry. Trapping Jrue Holiday in the corner to force a turnover. Diving on the floor and securing loose balls.

Kawhi Leonard, who described his surgically-repaired right knee and the inflammation in it as being in a “neutral” state yesterday, will not being going to Paris with Team USA. @WindhorstESPN with more here: espn.com/olympics/story… – 12:21 PM

Team USA announces that Derrick White has replaced Kawhi Leonard for the Paris Olympics. – 12:00 PM
Kamenetzky Brothers @KamBrothers
On the one hand, I’m sure Clippers fans are happy Kawhi isn’t going to risk his health at the Olympics. On the other hand, I’m sure they’re distressed that he’s not healthy enough to risk his health at the Olympics. BK – 11:41 AM
Doug Smith @SmithRaps
Vegas news: USAB announces Kawhi Leonard is out of Olympics to concentrate on getting ready for NBA season; Raptors announce they’ve signed Ulrich Chomche to a two-day.
(Didn’t say the news were of equal importance)
And it’s cooled off to about 39C now – 11:38 AM
Josh Lewenberg @JLew1050
No KD (injury) or Kawhi (withdrawn) for USA in tonight’s Olympic tune up from Vegas. Canada is expected to have its full 12-man roster, which will officially be announced this afternoon. – 11:34 AM
Michael Gallagher @MikeSGallagher
Mentioned on the pod that this video was concerning to me on the 5th.
Was pretty easy to see it coming that Kawhi wasn’t going to play. Not great at all.
The OKC stuff from the PG trade looking quite good. pic.twitter.com/dw3b17fU5W – 11:24 AM
Alan Hahn @alanhahn
Really surprised the Clippers let Kawhi Leonard even attempt to play but I understand why he wanted to be part of it. Still can’t believe Sixers are thrilled that Joel Embiid is there. – 11:23 AM
Marc J. Spears @MarcJSpears
Celtics guard Derrick White will be replacing Kawhi Leonard with USA Basketball, a source told @andscape. – 11:16 AM
Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Sad for Kawhi. That’s the only reaction.
You hear a player say they want something in the finite time they have to play at this level, and to be there and not get it is difficult to see. – 11:14 AM
Chuck Cooperstein @coopmavs
I know Derrick White has history with @usabasketball, but if I’m picking Kawhi’s replacement, I’m picking Jaylen Brown and I don’t think twice – 11:08 AM
Joe Vardon @joevardon
Kawhi Leonard out for Team USA in Olympics, Derrick White could replace. Leonard’s chronic knee inflammation forces him out, a la Kevin Love for the 2021 Olympics, @TheAthleticNBA nytimes.com/athletic/56290… – 11:03 AM

Scott Agness @ScottAgness
In a statement, USAB says Kawhi Leonard “felt ready to compete.
“However, he respects that USA Basketball and the Clippers determined it’s in his best interest to spend the remainder of the summer preparing for the upcoming season rather than participating in the Olympic Games” – 10:50 AM
Tim Reynolds @ByTimReynolds
Kawhi Leonard is off the Olympic team, after USA Basketball and the Clippers determined it is in his best interest to continue prepping for the season and not play this summer. – 10:49 AM
Shams Charania @ShamsCharania
Kawhi Leonard is withdrawing from Team USA for the Paris Olympics and will be replaced, sources tell me and @joevardon. Boston’s Derrick White is a strong candidate to replace Leonard on Team USA, sources said. pic.twitter.com/OlgwcDb012 – 10:45 AM
