‘Why He Say…Me For?’: Bam Adebayo Calls Out ESPN’s Brian Windhorst For Insinuating That He Should Be Benched Against South Sudan. 

After some shaky moments during their pre-Olympic tour, Team USA has handled both Serbia (110-84) and South Sudan (103-86), the latter coming just days after a one-point win over them in their final tuneup prior to heading to Paris. As the team finished off reigning NBA MVP Nikola Jokic and Serbia in their Olympic opener last Sunday, the attention quickly turned to South Sudan, who present a totally different look and challenge for Team USA.  In the aftermath of the Serbia win, Team USA head Steve Kerr was called out for not playing three-time first team All-NBA player and Boston Celtics star Jayson Tatum. Kerr attempted to use the return of Kevin Durant to the lineup as an excuse, but also admitted that he dropped the ball in not playing Tatum. Kerr caught a ton of backlash for the error, as he should’ve.  THIS MF said to bench Bam Adebayo BTW pic.twitter.com/nYox8VbY2o—
