• somewhere here there is a juicy narrative about the constructed rivalry between jb/hali.. like HELLO the way tyrese lowkey snubbed jalen of a spot on the olympic team: “But it was Haliburton -- not Brunson -- who got the Paris invitation. ... ‘I'm just focused on the playoffs,’ Brunson said flatly when the team was announced. ‘I didn't even look at the list.’”
• “The two have become friends since landing on Team USA last year, with Haliburton, who played at Iowa State, joking that while competing on the national squad with former Villanova teammates Brunson, Josh Hart and Mikal Bridges, he was a "substitute Donte" -- referring to DiVincenzo, the Villanova product who wasn't on the team.”
