LeBron James and Team USA played their second exhibition in preparation for the upcoming Paris Olympic Games. Following a comfortable victory against Canada last week, the Americans landed in Abu Dhabi to clash with Australia, a potential opponent for the gold in the Olympic tournament.

Lebron had a solid game for Team USA in playing 21 minutes, tallying 10 points, three rebounds, and three assists. He only took 8 shots, as Team USA got another win ahead of group play.James started the game alongside Steph Curry, Anthony Edwards, Jayson Tatum, and Joel Embiid. This was a revenge game of sorts for Team USA, after losing to the same team in a pre-Olympic exhibition game in 2020. Australia attempted a comeback starting the fourth quarter on a 13-3 run but were ultimately denied

Besides LeBron James, Joel Embiid and Bam Adebayo also scored 10 points, but they weren't the biggest stars of this match. It was Anthony Davis down the stretch who helped secure the 98-92 win.

LeBron James' teammate shines as Team USA beats Australia
Anthony Davis showcased his talent, leading Team USA to the win with a double-double. Davis scored 17 points to go along with 14 rebounds and two blocks in only 18 minutes of action. Devin Booker and Anthony Edwards added 16 and 14 respectively.

Veterans like James and Curry might be starters, but there's a group of players behind them who can lead this team too. Davis has come a long way since he made his Team USA debut in 2012, months before making his NBA debut. Edwards, one of the players from the 2023 Team USA squad, is expected to become one of the faces of the NBA and he's trying to become a leader right away.
