A lot of money to sit on the bench in street clothes.

Assuming he only plays half the games, it is crazy how much he's getting paid per game.

The guy has been playing non stop basketball since he was, what? 14? Every year on the national team and then in the NBA which is a long ass season when he was 18? I'm glad he's taking time to rest and take care of himself.
Go Suns!

Awesome! Glad he was able to join--now just don't get hurt. :P

According to the comments, Klay Thompson has tried to get released but the USA has refused. I don't know if he's tried this summer, though.

I think this is the second game they've had against each other, and Deandre didn't play in the first game either.

I'm assuming it's just "load management" for these exhibition games. :lol: Gordon and Hield didn't play in the final quarter or so.

How did Gordon fare? Were you able to watch his playing time?

I was only able to catch a little bit of Gordon playing, but he finished with 12 points in three quarters.

It was a publicity stunt. They never thought for a moment that Jackson would consider their offer.
