LeBron James may have faced disappointment with the Los Angeles Lakers last season, as they were eliminated in the first round of the playoffs. However, his success with Team USA in the Paris Olympics made up for it in a big way.
James and Team USA went undefeated in their Olympic journey, capping it off with a gold medal win against Victor Wembanyama’s Team France in the final. This win marks what is likely James’ final Olympic appearance, and he commemorated the occasion in a special way.
LeBron added a new tattoo to his growing collection, this time honoring his Olympic achievements. He got the Olympic rings tattooed on his right forearm and shared the moment with his fans via Instagram. In his post, he captioned it, “Back at it my guy!!!!🫡”
Throughout the tournament, James averaged 14.2 points, 8.2 rebounds, and a team-leading 10.2 assists per game. His remarkable performance helped Team USA win their fifth consecutive gold medal, and he was also named the tournament MVP for his outstanding contribution.
LeBron James’ latest tattoo quickly caught the attention of NBA fans, sparking mixed reactions. While some fans appreciated the gesture of honoring his Paris Olympics success, others were less enthusiastic about the new ink. As usual, opinions were divided when it came to James’ decision.

LeBron James Drops a Hint About His Future Plans After Retirement
LeBron James, now in the twilight of his legendary NBA career, is entering his 22nd season with the Los Angeles Lakers. As speculation grows about when he might retire, many believe that he could hang up his sneakers once his current contract ends.
While nothing is set in stone, James has already hinted at what could be in store for him after retirement. During a recent interview on the “GoJo and Golic Show,” LeBron dropped a hint about his future plans.
“I definitely love the sport. I see Tom Brady doing it, and he’s been great so far. We’ll see, maybe a guest appearance for one or two games when I’m done playing,” James said.
LeBron recently signed a two-year contract extension with the Lakers. It means fans may have to wait a couple more years to see if James will follow in Brady’s footsteps with a comeback of his own after retirement.
