Charles Barkley criticized the decision to bench Jayson Tatum during Team USA’s game against Serbia.
Team USA’s head coach Steve Kerr chose not to play Tatum in the opening game of the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Kerr informed Tatum before the game, and the Boston Celtics forward accepted the decision professionally.
Barkley, a former Olympic gold medalist, believes Kerr made a mistake by not including Tatum in the rotation.
The NBA legend emphasized that every player on the roster deserves playing time in the Olympics.
