The Olympics start July 26, 2024, and Team USA is expected to have a full training camp and preseason tour to perhaps multiple countries before arriving in France. If any of the interested superstars make a deep playoff run, they would be making a massive commitment of their time and their bodies following a grueling season. James, Davis, Durant, Curry and even Lillard have all dealt with extensive injuries over the last several years.
Finally, the first part of the Olympic basketball tournament is not in Paris. It’s public knowledge, but few NBA stars may realize that the preliminary games will be played in Lille, France, a 1-hour, 40-minute train ride north from Paris.
The medal rounds will be played in Paris, but romanticizing a “last dance” for some USA Basketball legends in one of the most beautiful cities in the world is only a half-truth. There will be nights spent in the industrial town of Lille, which isn’t all that far from Belgium.
No NBA player will ever step foot anywhere near the accursed land of Belgium
