Basketball legend LeBron James has had many special moments in his over 20-year professional career. However, the honor of waving his country’s flag in the Olympics was one moment he hadn’t lived out yet. But the 39-year-old is set to live his dream as he has been voted by all members of the US contingent to be the flag bearer of Team USA’s men’s team.
James, who has been a cornerstone of Team USA basketball for years, will be playing his fourth Olympics for Team USA. In his previous three appearances, the 4-time NBA champion won two gold medals and one bronze while representing his country.

LeBron James To Retire From Olympics After Paris Event
Meanwhile, LeBron has confirmed that the 2024 Paris Olympics will be the last of his career.
“No, I won’t be there,” James was quoted as saying to TODAY’s Craig Melvin. “I’m getting the hell out of that city when the Olympics come to Los Angeles. All right, I’ll live there all year. I will not be in Los Angeles in ’28. I’m getting out of there”, he added.
At 39, LeBron is already the oldest player to represent Team USA in the Olympics. The Lakers star is third on the top-scoring list after Kevin Durant and Carmelo Anthony with 273 points. He will be eyeing to end his Olympic run with another gold.
