With the 2024 Paris Olympics nearing, it was only a matter of time before we found out which players would be representing the country for USA Basketball.

So far, 11 names have been all but confirmed: LeBron James, Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant, Jayson Tatum, Joel Embiid, Devin Booker, Tyrese Haliburton, Anthony Edwards, Jrue Holiday, Bam Adebayo, Anthony Davis.

Stephen Curry to play in first Olympics

As expected, it’s a dream team of some of the best players on the planet. Yet surprisingly, this will be the first time ever that James and Curry will play on the same team in a professional setting.

Curry played for Team USA at the 2010 FIBA World Championship and 2014 FIBA World Cup, both of which James missed.

James, on the other hand, has taken part in three different Olympics. He won Bronze at 2004 Athens before earning back-to-back Golds at 2008 Beijing and 2012 London.

After taking the last two Olympic Games off, James is back. And he will be playing with the best shooter of all-time by his side. The two players are currently gearing up for the NBA Play-In Tournament, with both playing on Tuesday night in the first round.
