The 2024 Paris Olympic Games are fully underway with tonight's opening ceremony from Paris. Though multiple Olympic sports began Wednesday, this marks the official start of the Games of the XXXIII Olympiad.

Men's basketball star LeBron James will be one of two Team USA flag bearers during the opening ceremony. James is making his fourth Olympic appearance after playing in the 2004, 2008, and 2012 Olympic Games. The 592 athletes on Team USA voted James as the male flag bearer in this year's games.

Tennis star Coco Gauff is the female flag bearer for Team USA three years after missing the Summer Olympics in Tokyo due to a positive COVID-19 test. She is the first tennis player to be a Team USA flag bearer.
