RJ asked how contract affected summer training, not playing for Canada, “I’m glad you said it. It was weird, not really getting to even play runs…the whole time without basketball [games]…Glad we got the deal done…I was still working out, but there’s no shape like game shape“

Never a good distraction but seems to be in his rhythm now
Never really thought about this, but it makes sense that RJ wouldn’t get to play pickup in the summer since he didn’t want to risk getting hurt before the his deal.
Mitch took a while to get into game shape, and beasted last season. Glad RJ is looking like he has more bounce recently
That’s actually a really good point/question. Makes sense.
Barrett and Grimes the version of Tatum and Brown that win championships
WORD IS FUCKING BORN
Let’s go!!!
I felt bad for him, bc he was practicing with the Canadian team and even featured on some of the promotional media for the games and he never got to play.
Another slap of reality right in the face for the anti RJ nephews who have been eerily… silent.
I wonder why!
I didn’t know the contract negotiations were why he didn’t play for Team Canada
