Did anyone watch the Olympics i think it was AD's rookie year? Watched every game, I think AD got 11 minutes at the end of a win. Zion is not missing anything other than meeting the players. He will be more prepared to play Pelicans basketball to start the season now.

Definitely watched the Olympics in ADs rookie year. It was when I got into basketball.

A lot of this has to do with these games are so close to training camp. Then they'll do this again at next year's summer Olympics.

Zion isn't on/dropping out of the national team, he was asked to be part of the group that practices against the national team to help them get ready for the World Cup.
