LeBron James showcased his leadership once again by scoring the final 11 points, leading the U.S. men's basketball team to a 92-88 victory over Germany. This came in their last exhibition game before the Paris Olympic Games begin this weekend.

Earlier in the day, James was announced as the male flagbearer for the U.S. in Friday's opening ceremony along the River Seine. His critical performance, complemented by notable contributions from Joel Embiid, Stephen Curry, and Anthony Edwards, secured a perfect 5-0 exhibition record for the American team.

Despite facing tough competition from Germany and other teams like South Sudan and Australia during their exhibition slate, the U.S. team, led by James, demonstrated resilience. As the games now move to Paris, James and his team are gearing up for the real challenge ahead.
