It seems that everyone has an opinion about Jayson Tatum’s lack of playing during the recent Paris Olympics.
But one person doesn’t want to share his opinion: Tatum’s teammate and friend Jaylen Brown.
Speaking with NBC Sports, per ClutchPoints, Brown shot down the chance to comment on Tatum’s time at the Olympics.
“Jayson Tatum will be fine, we will be fine,” Brown said, before pointing the conversation in a different direction.
“I don’t have any comments right now… Jayson Tatum will be fine, we will be fine.”

Brown has a lot of thoughts about Team USA and the Olympics.
When Kawhi Leonard stepped down from the squad, many people thought that Brown would be his replacement.
He was coming off his best season yet and had just won the Finals MVP.
But Team USA organizers instead chose to go with Derrick White, a move that perplexed countless NBA followers.
It also upset Brown, who publicly commented on this snub.
Brown eventually bit his tongue about missing the Olympics and now he’s choosing to not speak about his teammate either.
It’s clear he is instead trying to focus on the upcoming season and helping his Celtics reach the Finals again.
Brown doesn’t need to share his thoughts about Tatum because so many other people already have.
A large number of people aren’t happy with Tatum’s lack of playing and there have been many criticisms of Steve Kerr’s coaching because of it.
But the Olympics are over and it’s time to move forward.
Brown and Tatum don’t have to say anything because their performances on the court next season will be the only statements they have to make.
