LeBron James to attend Team USA minicamp

LeBron James will indeed join Team USA in Las Vegas next week but will be home before the Olympic hopefuls play their scrimmage in the desert because of commitments with his charitable foundation.

A source close to James said the Cavaliers' superstar and two-time gold medalist would be in Vegas with Team USA for at least a little while, but would be gone before the powwow concludes because of a yet-to-be-announced event with the LeBron James Family Foundation.

James' attendance next week does not mean he'll play for Team USA. That decision is expected much later.
