Today, renowned NBA journalist Shams discussed LA Clippers star Kawhi Leonard’s withdrawal from the U.S. men’s national basketball team on the show The Pat McAfee Show.
Shams stated:
“The decision (for Leonard to withdraw from the national team) also had to do with Team USA, who observed that Leonard was not performing well over several consecutive days of training. I saw his training as well, and compared to players like Curry, James, and others, Leonard’s on-court performance was subpar. As a result, Team USA determined that he did not meet the team’s requirements for player health and adaptability, deeming him unable to continue participating in the games.”
