Team USA head coach Steve Kerr is amazed by Lakers superstar LeBron James.
Team USA, led by Los Angeles Lakes superstar LeBron James, is set to bring home a fifth consecutive gold medal this summer in the 2024 Paris Olympic Games. James is no stranger to winning the top prize, having done it four times at the NBA level and twice for Team USA in the Olympics.
"Pretty amazing," Kerr said. "I'm just blown away by his effort, concentration and focus in every single drill. He talks. Even in a shoot-around walk-through, his voice behind the play yelling out what's happening, yelling out the scheme." Kerr is no stranger to James and what he's accomplished. These two are longtime rivals dating back to James' time with the Cleveland Cavaliers and his facing the Golden State Warriors in four consecutive NBA Finals from 2015-18. Kerr has the edge over James 1-3, but that one included a 3-1 comeback in 2016 when James brought home the Cavaliers in their first and only NBA championship.
