It seems that LeBron James will never age, as he keeps breaking records season after season in the NBA. The Lakers star is about to enter his 21st campaign in the league, and experts are starting to wonder if he will ever start to suffer physical limitations.
Recently, Bleacher Report’s Greg Swartz posed the question if this will finally be the year we will start witnessing the 38-year-old’s decline as an athlete.
“This is the year James finally begins his descent, right?,” he said. “While we’ve seen minor slips in athleticism and in certain aspects of his game, it simply goes against everything we know about aging to see James still performing at this level with birthday No. 39 coming in a few months.”
The NBA insider then started to list all the accomplishment that the player has achieved in his late age. “James just recorded the highest scoring season in history for a 38-year-old (28.9 points per game), easily passing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s previous record of 23.4 in 1985-86. Only two other players in the history of the league (Michael Jordan and Karl Malone) have averaged more than 14.2 points per game at this age,” he expressed.
The reporter finally stated that the veteran superstar is about to reach yet another record, becoming both the youngest and oldest player in the league during his career.
“If Andre Iguodala indeed files his retirement paperwork, James will become the oldest player in the NBA, exactly 20 years after he became the youngest. By turning on the tape, watching him move and seeing the production James still puts out, you’d never know it,” he said.
It’s important to mention that LeBron’s pursuit of Abdul-Jabbar’s all-time scoring record took a toll on him, as he had to recover from his recurrent foot injury and stayed on the sidelines for almost a month.
The Los Angeles player eventually opted for surgery but his priority was first set on pushing himself all the way through the playoffs until they were eliminated by the Denver Nuggets in the Western Conference Finals.
