After Team USA triumphed in the 2024 Olympics with a win over host country France in the finals, lots of praise has been heaped on both LeBron James and Stephen Curry. The duo combined to become a potent attacking force and unleashed mayhem on their opponents. Their effectiveness while playing together on the world stage has now led to calls for them to play as teammates in the NBA.
Speaking on the First Things First show recently, sports analyst Nick Wright disclosed he has found a way to make that happen. He further asserted that if Curry and James were informed of his plan, they would quickly jump on board.
According to Wright, his method will ensure both NBA stars are comfortable with being teammates, as it will also address any salary concerns. Furthermore, he sees the proposal as something that neither the Lakers legend nor the Warriors player will reject. Instead, he argued that they would be pleased to proceed with the trade.
So I found a trade that works with the salary cap. That I think you can make an argument all parties involved get fair value... It is something that if it were presented to Steph and LeBron, I think they would at least immediately get on the phone and discuss it... And it is LeBron James and Steph Curry, both being traded to the San Antonio Spurs.Nick Wright said
LeBron James and Stephen Curry made the Paris Olympics their own, helping the USA men’s basketball team breeze past opposing sides en route to winning the gold medal. Their impressive performances playing side by side, will have undoubtedly made basketball fans dream of having them in the same team.

Ahead of the 2024 Olympic Games, Curry had only played against James on the other side of the court as an opponent. Therefore, getting to play alongside James as a teammate in his first ever Olympic outing, would likely have been a memorable experience for the Warriors star.
Curry did have something positive to say about James, after finally sharing the court with the Lakers star as both Team USA teammates.
Playing with LeBron is exactly how I imagined it. He understands the game at such a high level. He's an all-time great.Steph Curry on LeBron James
Given the duo’s inclusion in the Olympics All-Star Five following their impressive achievement at the tournament, Curry playing with James certainly brought more than just memories.
