Does Payton Pritchard belong on the USA Select Team?

Payton Pritchard saw his playing time fall off a cliff last season as he felt the minutes crunch following the Boston Celtics‘ addition of Malcolm Brogdon. Despite struggling for a legitimate role in Boston’s rotation, Pritchard has been chosen to join the USA Select Team this summer, per ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.

In a recent episode of ‘The Green With Envy Podcast,’ the hosts discuss whether Pritchard will be ‘in above his head’ when playing alongside and against some of the best young talent the NBA has to offer. The hosts also look at the other side of the coin, discussing whether Pritchard is capable of playing at a higher level, but his limited role has seen his chances to impress fall by the wayside.

During the episode, the ‘Green With Envy’ hosts also discuss the Joel Embiid rumors and a recent report by Heavy’s Steve Bulpett that Boston is turning down calls regarding Malcolm Brogdon’s availability. 

Check out the clip embedded above to hear who they might have in mind.
