Former NBA star Paul Pierce believes LeBron James’ career with Team USA is not over yet. Although James will turn 39 next December, Pierce maintains that Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James will wear his country’s jersey once again in the 2024 Olympics.
“I really think LeBron is going to Paris.”, Pierce told the podcast Ticket & The Truth. “I think LeBron will be in the Olympics. This will be his last Olympics. I think Steph Curry will be there. He will go to the Olympics. I think he has to go.”
The last time James played for Team USA was at the 2012 London Olympics. He has represented Team USA in three Olympics (2004, 2008 and 2012), one World Cup (2006) and one FIBA Americas Championship (2007).
James travels with the following career averages with Team USA: 13.3 points, 3.9 rebounds and 3.8 assists in 43 appearances for Team USA in FIBA competitions.
Let’s see if indeed LeBron James will play the 2024 Olympics in Paris with Team USA. It would surely be beautiful and the right way to end his beautiful career with the United States, which began with the tragic defeat in Athens against the Argentina of Luis Scola and Manu Ginobili.
