[Saba Sports News] Team USA narrowly defeated Germany 92-88 in their final exhibition game before the 2024 Olympics, prompting fans to question why a certain player didn’t see action.
LeBron James led a fourth-quarter comeback, scoring 11 points, including a crucial three-pointer in the final 90 seconds. Despite having top NBA offensive talent, Team USA struggled against Germany’s tough defense.
Fans on social media questioned why head coach Steve Kerr didn’t play Tyrese Haliburton, known for his exceptional passing. Haliburton led the NBA with 10.9 assists per game last season and also led Team USA in assists during earlier exhibition games.
The recent close calls against South Sudan and Germany suggest that Team USA’s path to Olympic gold may be more challenging than anticipated.
