Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!Brooks, who had 10 points in Team Canada’s 86-72 loss, walked right in between where the media and Booker were standing, prompting a confused look on Booker’s face.

Fans were not surprised to see the latest “villain” antics from Brooks, who said before the game of Team USA’s stacked roster: “They gotta guard. They gotta play defense.”
Team Canada only ended up shooting 33.8% from the floor in the loss, while the Americans had 11 steals and nine blocks.

Brooks also shared some heated moments with LeBron James during the game.
No love lost between LeBron James & Dillon Brooks! ????
