LeBron James says playing on a team with Stephen Curry at the 2024 Paris Olympics was an unforgettable experience”/>
Los Angeles Lakers MEGASTAR LeBron James shared his unforgettable experience of finally being able to play on the same team as Stephen Curry at the 2024 Paris Olympics, which he described as more than anything.
James, who throughout his career has been known to compete closely with Curry, was very enthusiastic when he got the opportunity to play with the Golden State Warriors star in a competitive atmosphere in the international arena.
“I’m very excited to be able to play on a team with him in a win-or-lose atmosphere like that,” said James before the Lakers left for their pre-season match against the Golden State Warriors, quoted from the NBA’s official website, Wednesday (16/10).
“It was one of the moments I have always dreamed of and will remember throughout my career,” he continued.
At the 2024 Paris Olympics, both James and Curry played an important role in the United States (US) winning the gold medal.
James recorded a triple-double as the US national team defeated Nikola Jokic’s Serbia in the semifinals, while Curry provided the final victory over France with a series of late three-pointers that sealed the gold medal.
However, James, who is now 39 years old, stated that the 2024 Paris Olympics would be his last Olympics. Therefore,
The possibility of playing with Curry again could only happen in the NBA, although it seems unlikely that that will happen.
James is still committed to being with the Lakers for the next two seasons, while Curry is still under contract with the Warriors for the next three seasons. In fact, Curry once stated that he would forever wear a Warriors uniform.
Although their chances of playing together are small, James still emphasizes his great respect for Curry.
“I understand what Steph has done for the game, for the organization and for the community around the world. Seeing the way he does
work and how he hones his skills every day is extraordinary,” praised James.
Both James and Curry have become two of the biggest icons in the world of basketball in this era. James is the NBA’s all-time leading scorer, while Curry is the NBA’s all-time highest three-point scorer.
The two of them faced off in four consecutive NBA finals between 2015 and 2018. (Ant/Z-1)
