Lebron Interview

Team USA’s LeBron James sat down with FIBA to give his thoughts on the team’s bronze-medal performance at the World Championship and what the future holds for the American team…

James scored 22 points, grabbed nine rebounds and dished out seven assists - all personal bests in the tournament - in the United States’ 96-81 victory in beating Argentina for the bronze medal. He also took over the point guard duties and helped disrupt Argentina playmaker Pepe Sanchez into three turnovers - after commiting five in total over the previous four games.

FIBA: What needs to happen for the U.S. to win a tournament like this again?
James: We just have to keep improving and do what we’ve been doing. We’ve improved since the first training camp in early July. Man, that’s so long ago. It feels like it was last year. But we’ve gotten better and come together and become a family. We just need to keep driving and getting better, and loving FIBA basketball because it’s great. It’s been good to us.
