LeBron James is in the tail-end of his career. However, it doesn’t look like he plans on slowing down through this twilight. LBJ is in his 18th NBA season and still butting heads in the MVP conversation. This longevity is unseen in modern sports, and even LeBron’s former teammate is stunned by it.

LeBron James spent his ‘prime’ alongside Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh in Miami. They won two titles with four NBA Finals appearances, as LeBron had some of the best statistical years of his career. But even that LeBron isn’t as good as the current LeBron, according to Wade.

“Now I watch his game and say, ‘does he have a weakness in his game’? It starts from the rim all the way back to the half-court. He can do everything. Let’s take it all the way back from the rebound, he does everything so well…

“He’s shooting in the high 40s now and his range is out to the logo. You know midrange, he can post you up, face yo up. Still going to dunk on you. His ability to see the floor is so much better now because he’s seen every coverage… I feel like this is the best LeBron I’ve ever seen.”

LeBron James: Better than his time alongside Wade?

LeBron James may never leave his prime. However, there has been an obvious statistical drop-off over the years. LeBron is averaging career-lows in minutes played and points this season. However, it isn’t about the numbers anymore.

LeBron proved in his time with LA that his impact on the court is far reaching. He is a primary distributor, playmaker, and a scoring option for his team. He averaged a career-high in assists last year, showing the versatility that he has added to his game.
