Gregg Popovich To Jayson Tatum: You Could Be Like Kawhi Leonard, Paul George
Jayson Tatum had the opportunity to play for Gregg Popovich for Team USA during the 2019 World Cup.
Popovich touted the unique two-way potential of Tatum.
\"Do you know how special you can be?\" Popovich asked Tatum. \"There are very few two-way players in our game, and you have the opportunity to be one of them. You could be like Kawhi [Leonard] and Paul George.\"
Tatum was so surprised by the comment that he initially didn\'t answer.
\"I hope I haven\'t offended you,\" added Popovich.
\"Offended me?\" Tatum said. \"That\'s a compliment!\"
