Philadelphia 76ers big man Joel Embiid hinted at the notion that Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James isn’t the same player he was a couple years back. “You look at the talent that the U.S. has, but there’s equal talent on other teams,” Embiid said to the New York Times when asked if there’s any doubt about who will win the gold medal in the 2024 Olympics. “And the talent that’s on the U.S. team, you also got to understand most of those guys are older.
