Because people are stupid.
He's a citizen and he's lived here for over a decade but every week I see tweets like this popping up
NAH ITS BECAUSE HE PRETENDED
HE WANTED TO PLAY FOR FRANCE
AND USED THAT AS LEVERAGE
TO GET AN EXPEDITED CITIZENSHIP...
THEN TURNED AROUND AND
PLAYED FOR AMERICA AFTER
HE GOT HIS FRANCE CITIZENSHIP.

Funky
Because they don't want to see Team USA win
Him playing for France is more acceptable even though he has no ties there while he's lived in the U.S. since he's 16, developed his basketball game almost entirely in the U.S. and his kid is American
Countries been giving fake citizenships to Americans to get them to play for their national team for years, ain't so fun when the rabbit got the gun

Balogun was born in brooklyn usa
reyna was born in england but his parents are american and he grew up in the usa
embiid was born and raised in cameroon to cameroonian parents
The leading scorer for Spain today in their victory to clinch an Olympics appearance today was Lorenzo Brown, a born and raised American

That part is weak, but that’s not why the poster tweeted that

Patrick Ewing played for Team USA. Mike Brown coached the Nigerian Basketball team in the 2020 Olympics. So I don't see the problem

I don’t think that’s what happened and I know that’s not why the tweet was made.

Hakeem Olajuwon as well
1. HE WROTE A LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT
OF FRANCE AND SAID HE WOULD
ONLY PLAY FOR FRANCE.
2. THE THREAD TITLE
IS CLEARLY REFERRING TO MORE
THAN JUST THE TWEET IN THE OP.

Normally Americans usually feel a way when someone opts to play for another country.
