Kevin Durant and LeBron James Lead Team USA's Quest for Olympic Gold
Durant Sets Olympic Scoring Record, James and Curry Join Star-Studded Roster
Team USA Aims for Fifth Straight Olympic Title
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Kevin Durant cemented his legacy as one of the greatest Olympic basketball players of all time when he shattered the record for most points scored in USA men's Olympic history at the Tokyo 2020 Games last year. Surpassing Carmelo Anthony's previous mark of 336, Durant's prolific scoring propelled Team USA to a gold medal and further solidified his status as a basketball icon.
Heading into the 2024 Paris Olympics, Team USA has assembled a star-studded roster that combines the experience of veterans like Durant and LeBron James with the youthful exuberance of rising stars Stephen Curry and Ja Morant. With a combined 11 Olympic appearances and 10 Olympic gold medals among them, the team is poised to make a run at a fifth consecutive Olympic title.
