At almost 40 years old, LeBron James wanted to come to the Olympic Games one last time, just to have fun for his last international competition.

But be careful, because the King is not coming to have fun either, as he confirmed to journalists.

As calm as LeBron James . In good shape since the beginning of these Olympic Games, the King reminds us that he is still one of the best players in the world at 39 years old already.

He did not need to force his talent this Wednesday evening against South Sudan, the proof with his 12 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists. But the Akron native is not in Paris to have fun either.

LeBron James announces his goal

This Wednesday, he has just reached a historic milestone by passing the 300-point mark during Olympic competitions.

A feat achieved by only three players, which requires scoring talent of course, but also a certain longevity.

But for James, there is no question of getting carried away, his goal is elsewhere in Paris.

LeBron James on whether becoming one of three players to score 300+ points at the Olympics matters to him: “Not really. I’m here to win and win gold. It’s nothing to do with scoring, it’s nothing to do with all those stats.”

The competition is warned, James is only here to win gold, just to finish on a high note with Team USA. Good luck to the other nations trying to stop him.

All that matters is the gold medal🥇

The goat is focused on the medal

LeBron James came to Paris first and foremost for the gold medal and nothing else. The King wants to end his international career in style, and his statistics don’t matter. Not good news at all for the competition.
