The 2024 Olympic Games in Paris have drawn to a close, with 329 events showcasing the pinnacle of global athleticism. Among the memorable highlights was 39-year-old LeBron James leading Team USA to gold after their fourth-place finish in last year’s FIBA World Cup.
LeBron James Shines in Gold Medal Game with Exclusive Nike LeBron 22 Sneakers
In the Gold Medal Game against the host nation, France, James delivered an exceptional performance, logging the highest minutes on court and making significant contributions in both scoring and assists. His performance was further distinguished by his choice of footwear: the Nike LeBron 22 in a striking all-gold colorway. This exclusive design featured a dazzling gold base with black accents on the Swoosh and James’ signature at the heel.
