LeBron James
LeBron James crushes the court back-to-back in his recent performances against Atlanta Hawks and Charlotte Hornets. He came out with a total tally of 90 points in the two games.
King James has indeed taken the celebrations of his birthday and New Year to the basketball court. He ended the year 2022 with a splendid 47 on board and has now started off the year 2023 with another spectacular 43-point show. LeBron has been a part of the NBA since 2003. He has established himself as one of the greatest to step foot on the court.
LeBron James gave voice to his continuity in the NBA, “At 18 and 20, you’re just doing it off straight-up energy and straight skill. But at 38 for me, it’s mental. How much rest I can get from day to day, get my optimal sleep, get the right food in me, treat my body right.”
James finished with a total of 43 points with 11 rebounds and 6 assists in 2023’s first game against the Charlotte Hornets. Alongside Bron, Thomas Bryant scored 18 points with 15 rebounds and 2 assists and Austin Reaves bagged 15 points with 6 rebounds and 7 assists.
Darwin Ham replaced Frank Vogel as the head coach of Los Angeles Lakers in June. A team with LeBron James in it, who would leave that opportunity?
Darwin was asked about LeBron’s second straight 40-plus point game, “I just think he is taking his time and really looking at what the defense is trying to do to him,”
He added, “There were times where he had to be a willing passer and he was just that. If he was going to attack them downhill, making his 3-ball, getting out and running in transition.”
“There was a variety of ways he is on the attack and again. They had a couple of possessions where they were trying to blitz him. He’s finding the open man and making plays for other guys, and it forces the defense to play behind us.”
