An NFL star dropped shade on Boston Celtics' Jayson Tatum over his lack of playing time in the Paris Olympic Games.
Chicago Bears cornerback Jaylon Johnson seemed to randomly call out Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum on his limited playing time at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.Tatum famously saw less playing time during the Paris Olympic Games. Despite just winning his first NBA Finals and receiving a record-breaking contract extension, Tatum appeared in four games for Team USA during the Olympics, the second-fewest among all of the players. Almost every other player appeared in at least five games.
Tatum previously played a more significant role in the Team USA group that won the gold medal at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games. He averaged 15.2 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 1.2 assists per game, finishing second on the team in scoring. That performance came on a team that did not have stars like LeBron James, Anthony Davis, or Stephen Curry playing, which helped Tatum see more playing time.
