Star Boston Celtics player Jayson Tatum, who will represent the US National Team in the 2024 Olympics in Paris, has received a lot of attention. The St. Louis native’s jump shot, style, and playing tempo have all been criticized, along with any fictitious animosities that may exist between him and Team USA coach Steve Kerr.
Tatum may be getting consistent minutes for Team USA, but is Kerr actually using him properly? Is the Duke alum a victim of his elite diversity as a basketball player? Or is this a way to distract ourselves from the US National Team steamrolling their way towards a gold medal? The hosts of the CLNS Media “First to the Floor” podcast, Jake Issenberg, Ben Vallis, and Wayne Spooney, took a closer look on a recent episode.
If you like this podcast, you should also listen to the many other New England sports podcasts on the CLNS Media network, including “How Bout Them Celtics,” “First to the Floor,” “Celtics Lab,” and others.
