Jayson Tatum and Tyrese Halliburton were the odd men out in Team USA's fist game of the men's baketball tournament on Monday. People were especially interested in Steve Kerr's decision not to play Tatum and the coach basically apologized for the oversight. In an effort to right the perceived wrong, Kerr inserted Tatum in the starting lineup for Team USA's second game of group play against South Sudan.
How did Tatum respond? By missing his first two shots of the game and clanking a corner three-point attempt off the side of the backboard.
