> LeBron James, a three-time Olympian, two-time gold medalist, and the NBA’s all-time leading scorer, has so strong an interest in one more Olympics that he is ready to commit for next summer, and has also called multiple stars to essentially recruit them to join him with USAB in Paris, multiple league sources told The Athletic.
> James has spoken to Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant, Anthony Davis, Jayson Tatum and Draymond Green, and they are all prepared to commit as well. Separately, Phoenix’s Devin Booker, Portland’s Damian Lillard, Sacramento’s De’Aaron Fox and Dallas’ Kyrie Irving also have serious interest in committing, league sources said.

By 2024, it’all only be 3 or 4 of them
Future Netflix doc:
World Champions of What: The stupidest nothingburger in the history of sports, maybe mankind.
Lmao Europe is fucked
Lineups fking disgusting
Dennis: finally, a worthy opponent
Uh oh avengers
This the USA version of Draymond crying in the parking lot.
De’Aaron Fox would be a good addition for them.
They really putting together the Justice League lol
Bron calling in the suicide squad lmaoooo
They’re about to run a centre rotation with 2 guys that hate playing centre
U knew them mfs was sending a mercenary squad after their Fiba performance
Tatum is the future of USA basketball along with Ant. He was committed long before this
Andreas Obst sadly clears
Add actual centers please
Actually assembling the Avengers fr
Lillard Curry James KD Bam get the gold with 20 minutes playing time each
I just wanna see Lebron drive in and kick to Curry… or Lebron set a pick for Curry and watch the defence get f*cked
De’Aaron Fox’s career arc has been quite crazy if you really think about it.
Dennis is a dog and I’ve always liked him since his ATL days I just was too scared to say it
I think they are caught up in the emotions right now. a lot of these guys are going to be on teams making deep playoffs runs so i doubt they will all play
Lebron could be the first retired player still playing Olympic level basketball?
They need all the bigs because you know France wants all their big names there too because it is in Paris. That means Wemby and Gobert and possibly Embiid. Jokic will probably be there too.
Team is going to be very old, we need fewer playing on the wrong side of their peaks. Tatum and Booker are the names that excite me the most from that list. They could actually play the next Olympics too.
Kyrie should play for Australia
I hope Fox doesn’t get absolutely screwed out of a spot like he did in 2019, dude was absolutely cooking everyone and Pop decides to go with Derrick White of all people.
Awesome. The fucking avengers might actually be able to beat Lithuania.
Seriously though…it’s great if the top talent actually commits. That’s how it should be. A mid playoff tier roster ain’t cutting it internationally. This team USA is maybe about last year’s Knicks. Mid seed level.
Paris is going to be so much fun.
Theis and Schroeder: “Look What They Need To Mimic A Fraction Of Our Power”
All that just to beat Dillon Brooks and Dennis Schroeder.
Yeah I also plan trips with my friends with 1 year ahead and only 2 of us end up actually going.
