[Saba Sports News] LeBron James aims to help Team USA win gold in Paris this summer, but he may need to fine-tune his jump shot before the Olympic tournament begins.
A video went viral on Wednesday showing LeBron attempting a three-pointer during a scrimmage that was wildly off the mark. Steph Curry brought the ball up the court and, after drawing a double team, passed to Joel Embiid. Embiid made the extra pass to a wide-open James, who then launched a shot that hit the top left corner of the backboard.
Despite being voted the best player on Team USA by teammates, coaches, and USA Basketball staffers, fans were skeptical after seeing that shot. Another Team USA member recently claimed to be the top option on the squad, with others suggesting it could be LeBron or Curry. Ultimately, Team USA will rely on the hot hand at the Paris Olympics, hoping LeBron’s hand is hotter when the actual games begin.
