Exhibit 01Negative.BOS flair
Going to force the coaching staff to bench Sarr and then eventually trade him for Deandre Jordan. Yes, current DJ.
Exhibit 02Negative.ATL flair
Sarr had probably the worst defensive performance from a big in NBA history. Bro was just following Bam around waiting for his turn to get the ball.
Exhibit 03Negative.MIN flair
May be the worst Sarr game I have seen
