Jayson Tatum said that while playing limited minutes for Team USA was a 'tough personal experience,' he won't let it affect his decision about playing in 2028.
said his limited role playing for Team USA this summer will not affect his decision to play for the national team in the future.
"It was a tough personal experience on the court, but I'm not going to make any decision off emotions," Tatum said."If you asked me right now if I was going to play in 2028 -- it is four years from now and I to take time and think about that. So I'm not going to make any decision based off how this experience was or how I felt individually."Team USA coach Steve Kerr said repeatedly his choice not to play Tatum was not based on performance but matchups.
