LeBron James, more popularly known as King James, has been in the NBA for 20 years yet has not shown any signs of slowing down. Given that his Los Angeles Lakers haven’t been able to replicate their same form as their championship-winning-campaign just yet, Bron’s unit is gradually picking up to the pace of the season.
Going strong in his 20th year as mentioned, LeBron James is averaging 26.7 points, 8.6 rebounds and 6.3 assists per game. Under Darvin Ham, the Los Angeles Lakers have completely changed their roster surrounding around the Big 3 of Russell Westbrook, Anthony Davis and Bron, wherein each of them plays a unique role.
While AD, who has recently picked up a foot injury, has given a more precise role around the rim. This has led to LeBron James shooting more efficiently from downtown, whereas Westbrook can run the game at his pace. A strategy that has been working for them well, in the past couple of weeks.
What is LeBron James real name?
