On Wednesday, the first of five exhibition games ahead of the 2024 Paris Olympics, Team USA beat Team Canada 86-72. The game was another highlight of why NBA fans are crazy for LeBron James.

James played 19 minutes during the game, recording seven points, five rebounds, three assists, and three steals.
Apart from him, Anthony Edwards added 13 points, Steph Curry recorded 12 points, and Jrue Holiday was instrumental with 11 points.
