In the behind-the-scenes locker room video, LeBron James, Kevin Durant and the rest of the squad took turns signing each other’s shoes, caps, basketballs and jerseys in a sweet and wholesome show of team camaraderie. Team USA earned its fifth straight Olympic gold medal in what was a widely expected but still hard-fought finish this summer. James was named Olympic MVP while Durant becameJames’s and Durant’s autographs will no doubt be worth a fortune, as will those of other stars on the uber-talented U.S. men’s hoops squad.
