Team USA may decide to use LeBron James as point forward at Paris Olympics: 4/5 of starting five already decided.
Team USA may decide to start LeBron James from the point at the Paris Olympics. In fact, after a World Cup in which the United States suffered from a lack of physicality, Coach Kerr seems to be leaning toward using LeBron James as the de facto starting point guard, with Stephen Curry moving without the ball to shoot off blocks and off-loads. According to The Athletic reports, LeBron James along with Curry, Embiid and Durant are definitely considered starters, while the remaining spot in the base quintet should be contested by Kawhi Leonard and Anthony Davis, with the latter favored to add inches under the basket.
