Kings in the Olympics (Tokyo Edition)

[Tetsujin]

With Serbia unceremoniously knocked out of the Olympics by Nico Mannion and Italy and Harrison Barnes and Swipa not being invited to the Olympics this year, it would appear the only Kings past or present of note to participate in the Olympics this year will be Chimezie Metu, who is currently Team Nigeria’s sixth man and worthy of at least two or three highlights a game.

Kings’ best big man, baby!!!

this title should be renamed something along the lines of "Metu visits Tokyo"

Metu starting tonight. His three point stroke looks even better than it did to end the season.

Getting a chance to watch Giddey in this game against Nigeria. Talented.

Australia beats down Nigeria, who were resting most of their core guys for the Olympics, it seems.

he could well be our pick if he is available though many have the Warriors taking him.

Metu had like four threes in the first half against Italy. If his stroke holds for next season, he could have a bigger role.

[Tetsujin]

It isn't hyperbole to say that Nigeria lost this game because they didn't let Metu shoot enough.

 

[pdxKingsFan]

Did I jinx it?
