Relax…. Jayson Tatum’s ankle injury is minor

Tatum ankle

Late in Team USA’s victory over Turkey, THIS happened:

Ouch. Sprained ankles usually look worse and that’s the case here.

But… what does Tatum do? If he’s already in a shoe and walking without much of a limp, does he continuing playing (after a few days of rest)?

Or does he pack it up and fly back to the US to ensure he’s 100% healthy for the regular season?

I’m guessing this decision will be made tomorrow once the ankle is re-examined.
