LeBron James, Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant have all expressed an interest in playing in next summer's Paris Olympics, but Golden State Warriors and Team USA coach Steve Kerr said the roster is not even close to being finalized.

"That conversation is coming over the next couple of months," Kerr told Joe Vardon of The Athletic. "We'd like to have a roster set sooner rather than later. We don't have a date, but, you know, obviously, we don't want to leave guys in limbo.

"You want everybody excited about the prospect (of playing for Team USA); that's the first sign of, hey, we're taking this really seriously. A lot of guys are dying to play. Obviously, Grant has to lead the way in terms of building our strategy, and we haven't made any decisions. It's highly likely that guys who want to play may not be … whether it's established guys or guys who have been with us and guys who just played and played really well this last go-around, no matter how you slice it, you can only take 12, so it's very, very difficult, and it's a painful process because, you know, you get really attached to guys.

"This last group was so wonderful. In a lot of ways, I wanted to win the gold and just run it back."

Kerr led a youth-laden group of players to a disappointing fourth-place finish in this summer's FIBA World Cup. It's likely Kerr will be spearheading a star-studded affair in Paris, with the Games acting as an international last hurrah for a generation of players.

The Warriors coach said he and Curry "briefly" discussed the All-Star joining Team USA in Paris, but the two have remained intently focused on Golden State's 2023-24 season.

"Believe it or not, we have not had an in-depth conversation (about the Paris Olympics)," Kerr said. "We've been so focused on the Warriors' season and the way last year ended, what we're trying to establish right now."

Thanks to a combination of injuries and the grueling NBA schedule, Curry has never been an Olympian. He's won a pair of golds in the FIBA World Cup, but Olympic gold remains the final thing on his basketball bucket list.

"If all things stay the same, I want to be playing," Curry told reporters in October. "It's the one thing I haven't done, and I also understand the opportunity for Team USA to kind of reassert themselves as dominant in the world and all that type of stuff."

James won Olympic gold in 2008 and 2012 but has not played in international competition in over a decade. He will be 39 years old by the time the 2024 Olympics heads to Paris, but he's reportedly been at the forefront of the push to get stars to make the trip.

Durant, who has been part of the last three gold medal teams, also confirmed a desire to rock the red, white and blue for a fourth time. If Team USA wins gold in Paris, Durant would be the first men's player to ever win four gold medals.
