Dallas Mavericks’ superstar Kyrie Irving expresses his keen interest in representing Team USA at the upcoming 2024 Paris Olympic Games, aiming to join a star-studded roster of NBA luminaries.

While Irving’s inclusion in the 41-player pool for the 2024 Team USA has been noted, he has been somewhat overlooked in discussions surrounding this year’s national team lineup.

NBA insider Shams Charania revealed Irving’s strong interest in joining Team USA for the Paris Olympics, emphasizing his desire to represent his country on the global stage.

“I’m told Kyrie Irving has a deep desire to represent his country, represent the USA in the Paris Olympics this summer, he wants to be part of this team,” Charania said on FanDuelTV’s Run It Back.

Irving boasts a decorated history with Team USA, having secured gold medals in both the 2014 World Cup and the 2016 Rio Olympics.

The prospect of Irving joining forces with other NBA icons like LeBron James, Steph Curry, and Kevin Durant adds further excitement to Team USA’s potential lineup.
