I think Jayson Tatum being out of the rotation today makes sense for a similar reason leaving Jaylen Brown off the team made sense: this is not a wing-heavy Olympic field.
The opponents Team USA will mostly face are guard/big-heavy. If Luka were in, more wings might make sense. – 2:11 PM

Steve Kerr says Jayson Tatum “handled it well” about not getting minutes tonight. Just a matchups/combinations decision. He’ll play. – 2:11 PM

Talent and depth are paramount in international play. In Sunday’s 110-84 rout of Serbia, Team USA once again proved why its unrivaled in both.
Jayson Tatum and Tyrese Haliburton did not play. Joel Embiid was far from his best. Yet the Americans won by 26 points anyway.

By no stretch am I saying grabbing gold will be easy—but USA sat Tatum AND Haliburton and won by nearly 30—this team is just too good. The only way they lose gold is if they mail it in and that is not going to happen. Not with LeBron-Stephan and KD on the court among many others – 1:48 PM

Team USA vs Celtics conspiracy handbook
– J. Brown: not on team
– J. Tatum: on team, not in rotation
– J. Holiday: oldest Celtic on team, play him as much as possible
– D. White: wasn’t on team, cancel his vacation (also: see Brown)
– K. Porzingis: not American, injured anyway – 1:15 PM

USA Men’s Basketball handles Serbia 110-84 led by Kevin Durant (23pts) in his first game with this team. LeBron had 21-7-9.
Tatum and Haliburton DNP. Steve Kerr leaning more on defensive-minded guards.
Next: Wed. v South Sudan. – 1:10 PM
Bobby Manning @RealBobManning
We’ll likely hear post game whether Tatum’s DNP had a reason behind it or was a CD. Knew he had an ancillary role on this roster, but never imagined a DNP. – 1:08 PM
Evan Sidery @esidery
Two players appear to be out of Team USA’s rotation currently:
Jayson Tatum
Tyrese Haliburton
Both are the only players to receive zero minutes in Steve Kerr’s opening rotation thus far. pic.twitter.com/TfS5xVmZ1K – 12:46 PM
Chris Mannix @SIChrisMannix
Tatum being out of the rotation is a twist. His minutes off the bench have been entirely absorbed by Kevin Durant. No indication of any injury. Right now he’s the odd man out. – 12:38 PM
Gary Washburn @GwashburnGlobe
Something might be going on with Tatum here. He was the last Team USA player out of the locker room and walked straight to the bench without warming up. #Celtics#Paris2024 – 12:20 PM
Marc J. Spears @MarcJSpears
Kevin Durant has 21 points off the bench on a perfect 8 of 8 shooting and five 3-pointers for @usabasketball in the first half against Serbia. USA up 58-49 halftime. Joker has 12 points, four assists and two steals for Serbia. Tatum and Haliburton didn’t play in the first half. – 12:06 PM
Dalton Johnson @DaltonJ_Johnson
Jayson Tatum and Tyrese Haliburton were the only two players left on Team USA’s bench in the first quarter – 11:40 AM
Erik Slater @erikslater_
Jayson Tatum doesn’t see the floor in the first quarter. I can’t say I saw that coming. – 11:38 AM
Josh Lewenberg @JLew1050
Imagine going without Jayson Tatum and Tyrese Haliburton in your 10-man rotation. Just an embarrassment of riches for the US… and yet, Serbia hasn’t blinked. Very fun quarter of basketball. – 11:37 AM

Boston Celtics and Team USA:
Jrue Holiday – starter
Derrick White – backup PG
Jayson Tatum – out of rotation
Jaylen Brown – not on the team – 11:36 AM
Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
USA second unit
White • Edwards • Durant • Adebayo • Davis
Third string: Tatum, Haliburton – 11:31 AM
Bobby Manning @RealBobManning
Let’s see how Durant looks. Could be a big factor in how close this one ends up.
Meanwhile still no Tatum 8 min. in. – 11:31 AM
Brady Hawk @BradyHawk305
That USA second unit with Edwards-Durant-Tatum-AD-Bam really is tough
All that to stop that Nikola Jovic second unit for Serbia – 11:09 AM
