Wade Still Undecided About Team USA

Heat star Dwyane Wade still isn’t sure if he’ll commit to playing for Team USA as the program prepares for the 2012 London Olympics.

Wade played for the United States at the Olympics in 2004 and 2008 and was leaning towards retiring from international play.

“I really said to myself after 2008, when we won the gold medal, that I was in the mind state that it was it for me,” Wade said. “Of course, my teammates have gotten into my ear a little bit and would love for me to be a part of it. But it’s a long way away for me.”

Wade, who will be 30 by 2012, said it would be easier for him to commit if he didn’t have to take part in training camp and the World Championships this summer.

He is among several high-profile players that will hit the free agent market after the season.

“It’s this summer that makes it difficult,” Wade admitted. “We all know the World Games are this summer. This is a very busy summer for me. I’m not trying to be selfish or make it all about me. I’m trying to make sure what I do is right for not only me, but for the organization I play for as well as for USA Basketball.”
