James and Davis will team up with Steph Curry, Kevin Durant, Jayson Tatum and Joel Embiid among others to chase another gold medal this summer in Paris.
Lakers stars LeBron James, left, and Anthony Davis are expected to participate for Team USA in the Paris Olympics this summer.
It appears James still feels healthy enough to compete in the Olympics and that Davis was asked for a commitment, with the duo reportedly part of the 12-player Team USA roster that was being finalized on Monday.
James won gold medals with Team USA at the 2008 Beijing and 2012 London Games. He was also part of the Team USA squads that won bronze in the 2004 Athens Olympics and the 2006 FIBA World Championship . “The one thing I know for sure, I don’t have to carry the load,” James said during All-Star weekend. “I’ve never had to carry the load on any one of the three teams I’ve been on, the ’04 team, the ’08 team and the ’12 team. I just try to do my best and be as great as I can be on the floor in the minutes I’m out there.Lakers’ play-in potential: what you need to know ahead of regular-season finale
USA Basketball executive director Grant Hill has said playing in the 2023 World Cup was not a requirement to be considered for the Olympic team.
