LeBron James Pan 'Last Dance'The U.S. Dream Team at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

U.S. national team coach Steve Kerr told local media that `all 12 players can enter the Hall of Fame.' The noodles are that fancy.

LeBron James, who is on the verge of retirement, targeted the Paris Olympics as his last international player. I persuaded a lot of superstars.

Top NBA stars have been confirmed to join. Head coach Grant Hill, coach Steve Kerr, coach Eric Spoelstra (Miami coach), and coach Turon Roux (LA Clippers coach).

The players are even more spectacular. Stephen Curry, Anthony Edwards, Tyreece Halliburton, Zru Halladay, Devin Booker (both guards) LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Kawhi Leonard, Jason Tatum (both forwards) Joel Embiid, Bam Adebayo and Anthony Davis (both centers) were named on the final roster.

However, Kawhi Leonard's departure from the national team has sparked controversy. Derek White entered as a substitute. White is the main player in Boston's victory, but his name value is lower than the previous 12 players.

CBS Sports said on the 12th (Korea time) "There is a reason why Derek White joined the national team. a good decision" concluded. What's the reason.

The media reported that as Kawhi Leonard stepped down with a knee problem, Jaylen Brown appeared to be the most likely replacement candidate. He is in the same position as Leonard and shares similar physical characteristics'

He is the leading player in Boston's victory and is the league's top wingman who forms Boston's strong one-two punch with Jason Tatum on the dream team.

By the way, the choice was White. Brown also expressed his anger at the U.S. national team uniform maker 'Nike' on his SNS. The reason was that he used an invisible force on general manager Grant Hill, and added White instead of Brown.

The media outlet said 'Brown has not signed a sneaker contract anywhere at the moment, but he has worn Adidas before. Rumors have swirled that U.S. national team general manager Grant Hill has influenced his decision to add White instead of Brown. He said it was a matter of forming a team,' he reported.

Coach Steve Kerr and general manager Grant Hill clearly had influence in the process of naming White instead of Leonard. However, there was a clear reason.

CBS Sports said the "American Dream Team" is not just about bringing together the 12 most talented players. Not only Brown, but also Zion Williamson, Jaylon Brunson, Damian Lillard, and Paul George are among the others. Brown is a strong wingman who can fly in and out, but what the Dream Team needs now is a strong guard.
