Kevin Durant remains interested in representing Team USA at the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, where he could pursue a historic fifth Olympic gold medal in men’s basketball.

Speaking at a USA Basketball Foundation charity event in Southern California on Saturday, Durant said his future with the national team will depend on USA Basketball’s plans and roster decisions, but he remains committed to maintaining the level of play required for another Olympic opportunity.

“It’s really on [USA Basketball managing director] Grant Hill and what Team USA wants to do,” Durant said, via ESPN’s Ben Golliver. “I stay on top of my game and hopefully I get that call, but there’s so many great players who deserve to be on the team.”

Durant would be 39 years old during the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles. If selected and if the United States wins the tournament, he would become the first men’s basketball player to win five Olympic gold medals.

The Houston Rockets forward has already won four Olympic gold medals, helping Team USA capture championships at the 2012 London Olympics, 2016 Rio Olympics, 2020 Tokyo Olympics and 2024 Paris Olympics. Durant was also named Olympic MVP at the Tokyo Games.

Durant’s international résumé extends beyond the Olympics. He won gold at the 2010 FIBA World Cup in Turkey and was named tournament MVP, becoming one of the most accomplished players in USA Basketball history.

His continued interest comes despite his age and an already historic career. Durant is entering his 19th NBA season after averaging 26.0 points, 5.5 rebounds and 4.8 assists in 78 games for Houston during the 2025-26 season. He shot 52.0% from the field, 41.3% from three-point range and earned his 16th All-Star selection.

Durant’s longevity has kept him among the NBA’s elite scorers. He has averaged 27.1 points, 6.9 rebounds and 4.4 assists over his career while winning two NBA championships and two Finals MVP awards with the Golden State Warriors in 2017 and 2018.
