A few months from turning 40, USA basketball legend LeBron James is set to make his fourth Olympics appearance for Team USA at this year’s Paris Olympics.

But the NBA’s all-time leading scorer will be making his first Olympics appearance since 2012.

James will become the first US men’s basketball player to compete at the Olympics in three different decades.

A three-time Olympic gold medallist, James earlier this month said that he is still playing at a high level.

He says he still loves the game of basketball.

The four-time NBA champion says Team USA has done well by him, so he felt like it was important for this summer to be able to go out there and play with the rest of the players.

The Olympics basketball competition will be held from next Saturday to the 11th of August.
