The honor of carrying the flag for the Olympic opening ceremony often falls to those who represent the country the best. In other cases, it falls to someone like LeBron James.

Team USA will be led into the 2024 Olympics by LeBron, the NBA star who represents several facets of being an American, such as nepotism and pretending to read books. But LeBron’s selection is also peculiar, given that he does not care for the national anthem, hates police officers, and doesn’t really like America. You may recall that LeBron questioned why an American imprisoned by the Russian government would even want to go back to the United States.
