NEW: From sinking two FTs to end Tuesday’s practice to fun with LeBron, playful jabs with Anthony Edwards and Bam Adebayo, Tyrese Haliburton is fitting right in with the USA National Team.
He’s a connector. That’s what he does.

Nickeil-Alexander Walker said he and Anthony Edwards were trash talking about their upcoming matchup on FaceTime yesterday:
“You know how he gets. I told him he’s not scoring. I told him I’m inviting any switch we need to, any island he wants to put me on, I’m good.” – 10:50 PM

On a Team USA squad with different generations, I wrote about how someone from the older generation (Kevin Durant) inspired someone from the newer generation (Anthony Edwards).
I spoke with KD about that role he has held + Ant’s excitement to team up: arizonasports.com/story/3550256/… – 7:54 PM

Anthony Edwards said LeBron, Durant and Curry could win any game at the Olympics 3-on-5. So what’s all this ‘No. 1 option’ stuff for Ant on Team USA? He said it, but not even he really thinks it, @TheAthleticNBA nytimes.com/athletic/56230… – 8:59 AM

You’ve seen Anthony Edwards’ quote about being the primary option for Team USA. He also mentioned how he’s OK biding his time.
“They mentioned some guys you might not play some games, might not play that many minutes. I don’t mind. I’m playing alongside Hall of Famers.” – 6:20 PM

“That’s what I told my brother after the first day, I was like dude’s 40 and he’s the best player on the court,” said Amen Thompson, a forward for the Houston Rockets and a voter in the poll, due to his participation in camp as a select team member. The U.S. roster is full of future Hall of Famers and is often compared to the storied 1992 Dream Team, but James won the poll with a plurality of votes cast with five. Stephen Curry, Anthony Edwards and Jrue Holiday each received two votes. Joel Embiid, Anthony Davis, Kawhi Leonard and Bam Adebayo each received one vote. -via New York Times / July 9, 2024
