In between the strain and seriousness that comes with competing in the Olympics, LeBron James is making sure he cuts loose every now and then.

During Team USA's win over Puerto Rico on Saturday, the Los Angeles Lakers star was seen dancing to Carly Rae Jepson's "Call Me Maybe" during a break in the action.

James' teammates seemed too locked in to join him, but that didn't stop him from having some fun.

James and the rest of Team USA enjoyed a comfortable 104-83 win against Puerto Rico in the final game of the group stages, and they'll now move on to the quarterfinal undefeated, where they will face Brazil.

James, a Team USA veteran, had 10 points, eight assists and six boards in the win while playing just 18 minutes. Minnesota Timberwolves star Antony Edwards led the way for Team USA, putting up 26 points in just 17 minutes.

Now on to the quarterfinal, Team USA will look to stay perfect in Olympic play as it chases another gold. The United States has won four straight golds since placing third in Athens in 2004, and it will look to continue that tradition of excellence this year.
