Given the brilliance in the basketball world, there are just a few things for basketball fans to marvel at. One of them was when the Team USA Avengers met at the Paris Olympics. Nobody anticipated Stephen Curry, LeBron James, and Kevin Durant to all play professionally under the same banner. It wasn’t simply fans who enjoyed every bit of their historic season. Even after the players reach the end of their careers, they will keep these memories close to their hearts. The Los Angeles Lakers veteran is currently staring at his rearview mirror through rose-tinted glasses.
LeBron James updated his Instagram profile photo. The Lakers legend’s new social media symbol drew a lot of attention because to who appeared in it. Kevin Durant and Stephen Curry grabbed centre stage. The photograph was taken at the Paris Olympics. Despite the long route, the three led Team USA to a spotless record.

Each of them provided a unique skill that no other player on the Team USA squad possessed. LeBron James contributed by serving as the team’s all-around leader. The Lakers great scored 14.2 points and led the team with 6.8 rebounds and 8.5 assists.
Stephen Curry, on the other hand, brought his lethal shooting ability to Paris. The Golden State Warriors legend scored the most points per game, averaging 14.8. Not to mention that he hit his shots with ease and had a 50% success rate throughout all three levels of scoring. Curry also sank 47.8% of his three-point attempts.
Kevin Durant was the microwave that Team USA required to be successful at the Olympics. By the end of the competition, Slim Reaper from the Phoenix Suns system had been the Stars and Stripes’ all-time top scorer. His average of 13.8 points per game was a significant help in that chase.
