USA Basketball executive Jerry Colangelo told Yahoo! Sports that the chances of LeBron James playing for USA in the future are pretty slim.
James will not play for the national team during the 2014 world championships in Spain and is also unlikely to take part in the 2016 Olympics.
“LeBron is going to be three years older during the next Olympics. He will have two older boys. He has a lot to endure with his family,” a source close to the Miami Heat forward told Y! Sports.
“He played in three Olympics. Everyone that knows LeBron knows it’s always based on a decision at that moment. But if the moment was today, the answer would be no.”
“The only way I could see him playing in the Olympics is if his country really, really needed him to play. But hasn’t he done enough?”
Experts believe James is getting older and the off season will serve as a much needed rest for the player. Considering he’s already won two Olympic gold medals and a bronze, walking away would be much easier now for James.
Guess the Lakers players!
