Japanese fan here. Why Yuki not playing as a backup point guard? 日本のファンです。読みにくかったらすみません (´・ω・`)
英語下手ですが、よろしくです。
Why Jenkins doesn't play Yuki? He can average 20 or 30 points and 15 asts. He has proved he can do that throughout his career. He almost beat France. He was the reason. He's essentially best player in the 3rd best country. He essentially led his team to bronze medal in Olympics. He's essentially 3rd best point guard in the world. He's that good.
Tonight, if he played, score would've been more close whether a win or a loss because he can add 20 additional points at least. Does the team reward Pippen RIGHT NOW before parting ways? If so, it makes sense because us Japanese fans all know Yuki was brought here to be the prime backup point guard position in the future. But now, we all are frustrated. We were kind of excited about all those injuries because we thought it would've only opened up minutes for Yuki, but it isn't happenning so far.
I really hope Yuki plays as a backup point guard. Thank you & love from Japan♥
