No. Take the Hilbert space and its standard orthonormal sequence . Let
the unit sphere. This set is norm closed but is not convex. By the Bessel inequality, for every ,
so ; equivalently, this is a weakly null orthonormal sequence. Every lies in , but the weak limit does not. Hence convexity is essential.
