Devin Booker now has 2 Olympic gold medals by the age of 27.
Expect him to be on the 2028 team for the LA Olympics.
Could Booker win 4 Olympic gold medals like Kevin Durant? #Suns #Paris2024 #TeamUSA pic.x.com/kokluilptk6:01 PM

Kyle Neubeck @KyleNeubeck
Anyway non-trolling edition, had a very good time watching that edition of Team USA.
—(probably) last hurrah for LeBron/Steph/KD generation
—Embiid gets valuable experience on this stage
—two really good/fun games to end the run
—didn’t have to watch baseball yet – 5:51 PM
Alok Pattani @AlokPattani
What a privilege to watch LeBron, Steph, & KD these last couple weeks! Who knows when we’ll see any of these legends play such high stakes games again, much less all 3 of them together.
Great run to the gold for #USABasketball at #Paris2024 ! – 5:48 PM
Joe Vardon @joevardon
There is nothing like a Saturday night in Paris, especially if the chain around your neck is a gold medal. Steph Curry, LeBron James, Kevin Durant and Co. will live well Saturday in the City of Light as Olympic champs, @TheAthleticNBA nytimes.com/athletic/56931…5:43 PM
Jeff Zillgitt @JeffZillgitt
The global 5×5 men’s basketball torch remains in the grasp of the Americans. Perhaps the grip is loosening. But it still belongs to the U.S., thanks for Steph Curry, LeBron James and Kevin Durant.

Gerald Bourguet @GeraldBourguet
Devin Booker finished a team-high +130 in 11 games for Team USA. Kevin Durant was a +84 in just 6 games.
THAT’S why they had two Suns in the starting lineup – 5:29 PM

calling for a 6 month ceasefire on lebron/curry/kd greatness debates. this past month was too cool to ruin. – 5:25 PM
Alan Hahn @alanhahn
A beautiful game by @usabasketball.
And this feels like unofficial the end of an era. Not sure we will get to see Steph, LeBron or KD play in a bigger game than this again, unless their NBA teams make some major changes, – 5:24 PM
Ryan Ward @RyanWardLA
It’s pretty cool that a lot players on this star-studded Team USA had their moment at different times during this tournament from LeBron, AD, Steph, Durant and others. Fun team to watch! – 5:24 PM
Micah Adams @MAdamsStatGuy
While sharing a court with LeBron and KD, Steph Curry taking over in back to back nail biters to deliver a gold is an all-time tombstone type of feather in the cap.
It’s his version of the Kobe 2008 moment.
This 3-day stretch is going to be a legacy talking point forever. – 5:21 PM
Joe Mussatto @joe_mussatto
What a treat to watch Steph, KD and LeBron do that at 36, 35 and 39. The defining players of this generation. – 5:21 PM

Like I said earlier this morning, this is the way it was supposed to go.
Serbia was incredible. France showed their high level too. Germany was respectable.
But Team USA, when they play the right way, is incomparable.
Steph, KD, LeBron. Incredible show. – 5:18 PM
