Even in 21, Los Angeles Lakers star forward LeBron James makes the game of basketball look easy. His game is simple and seems to improve every season.
Although James is no longer the same player, he is still one of the best players in the NBA today. In nine games, he averaged 25.2 points, 8.4 rebounds and 5.4 assists.
He has helped the Lakers win several games this season due to his dominance, which is impressive. But James is still one of the best players in clutch situations this season, something many have criticized him for in the past.
“He also excelled in clutch situations, ranking third in scoring (29 points), first in field goals made (11 points) and plus-minus (+14) in games within five points. ) tied for 13th in the league. Five minutes or less left in the fourth quarter.”

James’ ability to take over games in the final seconds makes him one of the most lethal players in the league today. He changes games by scoring and making the right passes to teammates for crucial shots.
The Lakers are lucky to have him leading the way again this season, and he has rewarded the Lakers with his performance. He will turn 39 later this year, but he doesn’t seem to be slowing down at all.
James is unlike any player we’ve ever seen in NBA history, and it’s incredible that he still accomplished so much so late in his career. Hopefully he can maintain this form throughout the year as the team will once again be in contention for a championship.
