Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry is currently on a mission to win his first-ever Olympic gold medal with Team USA. This was the primary motivation for the GOAT shooter to join the national team this summer, along with the opportunity to team up with some of the greatest players this game has ever seen.
There is one man on the team, however, that Steph is most looking forward to linking up with, and that’s LeBron James of the Los Angeles Lakers.

“I mean, ‘Bron, for sure,” Curry said. “I’ve played against him for however many years.”
The Warriors reportedly attempted to trade for LeBron this past season, which would have given birth to arguably the greatest NBA duo ever. That obviously never came to fruition but at least both superstars can now live their dream of playing with each other on the national team.
